Hello Alberto, or anyone else affected,

Accepted ubuntu-drivers-common into xenial-proposed. The package will
build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source
/ubuntu-drivers-common/1:0.4.17.5 in a few hours, and then in the
-proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how
to enable and use -proposed.Your feedback will aid us getting this
update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested and change the tag from
verification-needed-xenial to verification-done-xenial. If it does not
fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the
tag to verification-failed-xenial. In either case, without details of
your testing we will not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance!

Bug description:
  SRU Request:

  [Impact]
  Some systems don't play well when the dGPU is disabled. It should still be 
possible to use the Intel iGPU without disabling the dGPU.

  [Test Case]
  1) Enable the -proposed repository, and install the new 
"ubuntu-drivers-common"

  2) Make sure the nvidia packages are installed, and enable power saving mode:
  sudo prime-select intel

  3) Restart your computer and attach your /var/log/gpu-manager.log. see
  if the system boots correctly. If unsure, please attach your /var/log
  /gpu-manager.log and /var/log/Xorg.0.log

  4) Install the mesa-utils package:
  sudo apt install mesa-utils

  5) Check the output of the following command (which should mention Intel):
  glxinfo | grep OpenGL

  
  [Regression Potential]
  Low, as the feature is disabled by default. This is only for hardware 
specific workarounds.
