Attached powertop images. I'm not sure how accurate powertop's values
and distributions are. With prime-select intel, the total estimated
power remains high although it doesn't attribute it to nvidia. bbswitch
also stays on. I've also attached a bbswitch off capture after prime-
select intel. That actually seems to turn the gpu off. There's also a
default capture with nouveau drivers (i.e., the nvidia gpu is not in
use). There are a few other issues with prime-selct too. prime-select
intel glitches the lightdm login screen. You can't see the text entry
field. prime-query is also not accurate always. Sometimes it says it's
nvidia, but nvidia drivers are not loaded.
