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.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [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-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-settings 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 ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1778011] Re: SRU: PRIME Power Saving mode draws too much power
@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-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-settings 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 ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1778011] Re: SRU: PRIME Power Saving mode draws too much power
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-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-settings 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 ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1757180] Re: nvidia-prime can't switch off the discrete GPU
I have the same issue. Ubuntu 18.04 with Nvidia 1070 MaxQ GPU. Have switched to intel GPU but still powerdrain is enormous so obvioulsy the nvidia card is still in use. Powertop show me that the network interfaces wlp3s0 (iwlwifi) drains around 14W which cannot be true. So it also can't detect that its the nvidia card. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-settings in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1757180 Title: nvidia-prime can't switch off the discrete GPU To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-prime/+bug/1757180/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
