[Bug 1778011] Re: SRU: PRIME Power Saving mode draws too much power
Hi Alberto, just wanted to let you know that I made a new and clean install of Ubuntu 18.10 and now switching to Intel GPU works from the start. Thank you so much for your work. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gdm3 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1778011 Title: SRU: PRIME Power Saving mode draws too much power To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hwe-next/+bug/1778011/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 1778011] Re: SRU: PRIME Power Saving mode draws too much power
Or should I maybe try to make a clean install of 18.10 as you said that it should be fixed in it and maybe I just have some stuff from 18.04 still here that does not work and I am not experienced enough to find it? I just thought that there would be a way to make it work here. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gdm3 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1778011 Title: SRU: PRIME Power Saving mode draws too much power To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hwe-next/+bug/1778011/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

@Alberto, thank you for your answer. I have answerd your question on the Discord where you have also asked for testing. (https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/call-for-testing-nvidia-prime-in-ubuntu-18-04-and-18-10/8207/4) Sorry for my lack of understanding, but I am not quite sure what the problem is. How do I install it from the Ubuntu archive? I just upgraded from 18.04 and it is still not working. Again, I am really sorry for my stupid questions. But I would love it so much to finally solve it :) Best, Stefan -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gdm3 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1778011 Title: SRU: PRIME Power Saving mode draws too much power To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hwe-next/+bug/1778011/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Hi Alberto, I was having this issues for a long time and since I am not a very experienced user I thought to just wait for 18.10 and that it would be fixed there automatically. So today I upgraded and still face the same problem. I cannot even open the Nvidia x server settings. Could you maybe help me, as this is really annoying with the bad battery-life. Should I also follow your steps in 18.10 or is it somewhat different now? I would really appreciate help :) Best, Stefan PS: I would be happy to provide further information if neccessary -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gdm3 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1778011 Title: SRU: PRIME Power Saving mode draws too much power To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hwe-next/+bug/1778011/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
