What I find _**DEEPLY**_ disturbing is that this bug has been lurking for roughly two plus years with absolutely _**NO**_ resolution whatsoever.
Guys...you're a business and even if it's the "community" working on it, that business is bankrolling the resources you lot are using. If you hadn't figured it out...this rates one of Linus' trademarked vitriolic profanity laced rants. I'd do it, but I'm going to behave and try to figure out how to FIX this instead of "fix" it like you'd fix a dog or cat. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1507676 Title: Nvidia-Prime not switching from intel to nvidia leading to a black screen Status in ubuntu-drivers-common package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in xserver-xorg-video-intel package in Ubuntu: In Progress Bug description: STEPS: 1.
