Title:
Nvidia video output doesn't work on nvidia-prime (Optimus laptop)
Status in nvidia-prime package in Ubuntu:
Expired
Bug description:
My laptop is the Dell XPS 15 L502X
Nvidia Optimus laptop
GPUs:
Intel HD Graphics 3000
Nvidia GT 540M
Installed nvidia-prime on trusty on kernel 3.13, getting a black screen when
Nvidia enabled.
No video is output to screen when using Nvidia GPU.
Must switch to VT and uninstall nvidia drivers, restart lightdm service,
reinstall nvidia drivers, disable Nvidia GPU from nvidia-settings and reboot.
On Intel GPU, it works fine.
The nvidia-prime setup worked well on kernel 3.12, but on upgrade to kernel
3.13 it stopped working.
Used nvidia-331-updates and nvidia-331, same issue with both.
Also installed nvidia-331-updates-uvm/nvidia-331-uvm, if it makes a
difference.
