I've done 2 tests on 2 different machines. 1) nvidia 960m, bionic-proposed: everything up to date except for ubuntu-drivers-common. Nvidia driver is working when selected with prime-select but switching to intel (prime-select intel) does not work. Nvidia is still running.
2) nvidia 970m, bionic-proposed: everything up to date. I installed ubuntu-drivers-common and nvidia-prime from Alberto's hybridgraphics ppa. Everything works correctly. Both nvidia and intel modes are working as expected. Nvidia card is now silent and cold (I have 2 separate fan for cpu/gpu) when intel is selected. Maybe I should retry when ubuntu-drivers-common is updated in proposal? Hope it helps. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to 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/ubuntu/+source/gdm3/+bug/1778011/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
