Public bug reported:

I have a MacBookPro9,1, which has both an integrated Intel HD Graphics
4000 controller and a discrete Nvidia GeForce GT 650M.  I want to
disable the Nvidia graphics and boot using Intel only, since I don't
need the Nvidia chip's capabilities and it shortens battery life (and
makes suspend/resume not work; see bug #1084960).  But when I blacklist
the Nouveau driver and reboot using the Intel driver only, the X server
fails to start: it reports "no screens found" and crashes.

I'm booting using EFI rather than BIOS; not sure whether that's
relevant.

I'll attach the X server log and the dmesg log.  Just let me know if
there's any other information I can provide.
