Bug Description
SRU Request:
[Impact]
Some systems don't play well when the dGPU is disabled. It should still be possible to use the Intel iGPU without disabling the dGPU.
[Test Case]
1) Enable the -proposed repository, and install the new "ubuntu-
2) Make sure the nvidia packages are installed, and enable power saving mode:
sudo prime-select intel
3) Restart your computer and attach your /var/log/
4) Install the mesa-utils package:
sudo apt install mesa-utils
5) Check the output of the following command (which should mention Intel):
glxinfo | grep OpenGL
[Regression Potential]
Low, as the feature is disabled by default. This is only for hardware specific workarounds.
