Title: nvidia-prime needs a reboot to switch between dGPU/hGPU Status in nvidia-prime package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I previously used Ubuntu 16.04 and Nvidia 375 driver with a Nvidia Geforce 635M and Sandy Bridge i7. To switch between the 2 Optimus cards (Intel hybrid and Nvidia discrete), one had to go into nvidia- settings, switch, logoff, login back, and the change was applied. I now have a Nvidia Quadro M2000 and a Skylake Xeon which has some Sync/Mux feature (whatever does that mean) with the Nvidia 390 driver. First of all, installing nivida-prime doesn't install bbswitch-dkms. Then, once the GPU switch is made, it triggers update-initramfs, recompile the kernel modules, and one needs to reboot the system to get the GPU change. Even when we install bbswitch-dkms. So am I getting a wrong impression or is there something twisted here ?
