I'm not sure exactly how long this problem exists (i think something like 2-3 or more weeks), but it is impossible to switch to nvidia profile. Before nvidia-settings package offered controls to switch profile Nvidia/Intel but now its gone. If we try: #prime-select nvidia we have: Info: the current alternatives in use are: ['mesa', 'mesa'] Info: selecting nvidia-346 for the nvidia profile update-alternatives: using /usr/lib/nvidia-346/ld.so.conf to provide /etc/ld.so.conf.d/x86_64-linux-gnu_GL.conf (x86_64-linux-gnu_gl_conf) in manual mode update-alternatives: using /usr/lib/nvidia-346/alt_ld.so.conf to provide /etc/ld.so.conf.d/i386-linux-gnu_GL.conf (i386-linux-gnu_gl_conf) in manual mode so it seems like switching to nvidia profile, but after relogin or reboot again mesa is marked as used. If we try: #prime-switch nvidia we have: /etc/modprobe.d is not a file /etc/modprobe.d is not a file /etc/modprobe.d is not a file /etc/modprobe.d is not a file update-alternatives: error: no alternatives for x86_64-linux-gnu_gfxcore_conf update-alternatives: using /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/mesa/ld.so.conf to provide /etc/ld.so.conf.d/x86_64-linux-gnu_GL.conf (x86_64-linux-gnu_gl_conf) in manual mode update-alternatives: using /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/mesa/ld.so.conf to provide /etc/ld.so.conf.d/i386-linux-gnu_GL.conf (i386-linux-gnu_gl_conf) in manual mode update-alternatives: error: no alternatives for x86_64-linux-gnu_gfxcore_conf I have tried various driver versions but none of them work now.
