Hi, I was asked to test the proposed fix. I did so by installing Ubuntu 14.04 desktop on a Dell Latitude 3440 which has an Intel Haswell chipset, as well as an NVidia GK208M (Geforce GT 740M), PCI ID 10de:1292.
With the clean system as described, I enabled -proposed from software centre. Then I did apt-get update and apt-get install ubuntu-drivers- common (it installed version 1:0.2.91.6). after that I used software centre's "additional drivers" tab to install "NVidia binary driver - nvidia-331-updates". THen I rebooted and checked which driver is in use, it's "nvidia" and not "nouveau" as previously. I'm attaching my gpu-manager.log after I did all this. I'm unsure if this testing is adequate; but my system is used for testing only so I'm happy to retry and/or reinstall anything needed. ** Attachment added: "gpu-manager.log" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-drivers-common/+bug/1310023/+attachment/4187542/+files/gpu-manager.log -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1310023 Title: 14.04: Nvidia Prime is unable to switch to the Nvidia card To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-prime/+bug/1310023/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
