Public bug reported:
Last days nvidia-prime 0.7 has been released but this version, like
previous one, does not work in Vivid.
I'm not sure exactly how long this problem exists (i think something
like 2-3 or more weeks), but it is impossible to switch to nvidia
profile. Before nvidia-settings package offered controls to switch
profile Nvidia/Intel but now its gone.
If we try:
#prime-select nvidia
we have:
Info: the current alternatives in use are: ['mesa', 'mesa']
Info: selecting nvidia-346 for the nvidia profile
update-alternatives: using /usr/lib/nvidia-346/ld.so.conf to provide
/etc/ld.so.conf.d/x86_64-linux-gnu_GL.conf (x86_64-linux-gnu_gl_conf) in manual
mode
update-alternatives: using /usr/lib/nvidia-346/alt_ld.so.conf to provide
/etc/ld.so.conf.d/i386-linux-gnu_GL.conf (i386-linux-gnu_gl_conf) in manual mode
so it seems like switching to nvidia profile, but after relogin or
reboot again mesa is marked as used.
If we try:
#prime-switch nvidia
we have:
/etc/modprobe.d is not a file
/etc/modprobe.d is not a file
/etc/modprobe.d is not a file
/etc/modprobe.d is not a file
update-alternatives: error: no alternatives for x86_64-linux-gnu_gfxcore_conf
update-alternatives: using /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/mesa/ld.so.conf to provide
/etc/ld.so.conf.d/x86_64-linux-gnu_GL.conf (x86_64-linux-gnu_gl_conf) in manual
mode
update-alternatives: using /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/mesa/ld.so.conf to provide
/etc/ld.so.conf.d/i386-linux-gnu_GL.conf (i386-linux-gnu_gl_conf) in manual mode
update-alternatives: error: no alternatives for x86_64-linux-gnu_gfxcore_conf
I have tried various driver versions but none of them work now.
I'm running:
Kubuntu 15.04 (current/daily)
Kernel: 3.18.0-9
If you need any extra info, please comment.
