Title:
  can't get nvidia to work

Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I can't get the nvidia driver to work.

  When I type "prime-select intel" the system works.

  When I type "prime-select nvidia" glxinfo breaks.

  
  lsmod | grep nvidia
  nvidia_uvm            688128  0
  nvidia_drm             49152  0
