[Bug 1504220] Re: Black screen after "prime-select nvidia" and restart of lightdm/reboot
Yesterday I installed nvidia driver 355.11 update from the "ubuntu fresh graphics"-PPA and the problem seems to be fixed. I can switch via "prime select" and login via light-dm works fine on nvidia. There's only one flaw beloging to screen postioning but this is a new issue and should not be mixed with this problem. For me this issue could be marked as fixed and closed.

I'm not sure why you think it's only a security update, when it didn't specify what the "other fixes" were. As was previously advised to you in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BIOSUpdate , not all BIOS fixes are documented in the change log, tested to your specific problem under the same operating system, or tested under your operating system at all. Unfortunately in this case, it didn't improve the situation. Despite this, could you please advise which nvidia driver package precisely you were using when this worked in Trusty? ** Tags added: regression-release vivid ** Changed in: xorg (Ubuntu) Importance: Low => Medium ** Changed in: xorg (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1504220 Title: Black screen after "prime-select nvidia" and restart of lightdm/reboot To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1504220/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Rene Greuel, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better. As per http://support.lenovo.com/us/en/products/laptops-and- netbooks/thinkpad-s-series-laptops/thinkpad-s430 an update to your computer's buggy and outdated BIOS is available (2.61). If you update to this following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BIOSUpdate does it change anything? If it doesn't, could you please both specify what happened, and provide the output of the following terminal command: sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date For more on BIOS updates and linux, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette . Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful. As well, you don't have to create a new bug report. Once the BIOS is updated, if the problem is still reproducible, and the information above is provided, then please mark this report Status Confirmed. Otherwise, please mark this as Invalid.
