Public bug reported:
When running prime-select 0.8.6 to switch to the nvidia profile on a
dual-GPU laptop (Lenovo ThinkPad T460p, Intel Corporation HD Graphics
530 (rev 06), NVIDIA Corporation GM108M [GeForce 940MX] (rev a2)), it
fails with a Python traceback reporting a missing /etc/modprobe.d
/blacklist-nvidia.conf.
Command to run: "prime-select nvidia"
Expected: "prime-select query" now prints "nvidia".
Actual result:
root@kalymnos:~# prime-select nvidia
Info: selecting the nvidia profile
