Hello, Is there more to this fix than the latest version of nvidia-prime plus the gpu-manager.conf addition? I've tried using nvidia-prime 0.6.2 plush the gpu-manager.conf changes but no luck. I'm also seeing different behavior than when I've tried nvidia-prime and prime-indicator on Ubuntu 12.04 in that a call to "prime select nvidia" does not cause a prime generated xorg.conf file to be written to /etc/X11/. Perhaps this is an unrelated issue though.
When trying to debug my problem I also ran into another prime or prime- indicator lightdm config file that was specific to lightdm, though I can't find it now. I just remember a light that had "start" or "upstart" in it along with "lightdm" but there was no "gdm" anywhere in the file.

This means that 1. Anyone installing nvidia binary drivers will pull in nvidia-prime and subsequently lightdm. As a consequence of this they are also going to get the potentially confusing dconf pop-up asking them to choose a DM. 2. nvidia-prime probably won't work when using gdm I haven't looked to closely at how deeply integrated this is with lightdm, however we particularly don't want #1 happening, and it would be nice if #2 worked.
