Hi there. I'm also having the exact same issue on a Dell Inspiron 15 7559 running Ubuntu 17.04 beta 2, and had the same issue with 16.04 and 16.10.
As long as you just leave it in NVIDIA mode, the laptop runs beautifully... Once "prime-select intel" is invoked and you log out, the system hard locks when trying to load X. Booting in to rescue mode "mount -o rw,remount /" and running "prime- select nvidia" seems to fix it. I just now took a look at the "prime-select" script and am happy to see that it's written in Python since it's a language I'm familiar with. I'll start fartin' around with it and see if I can make some sense of what's going on, otherwise I hope that we can get some traction on fixing this.
