Hello,

I'm trying to get my nvidia card to work wit ubuntu 16.04.3.

So far I have installed nvidia-381 and bumblebeed. However only the intel card is working. For unity to work I need to do:

$ prime-select intel

Otherwise (wiht prime-select nvidia) unity won't start (login loop).

As far as I can understand the problem is that Xorg fails to load the nvidia driver AND also to create the screen for the driver. The service Bumbleebed is active but it reports errors (see below). When I look at Xorg.0.log I see the following (below the text).

My guess is that I first need to generate a valid xorg.conf file... and then make sure that the nvidia module is correctly loaded. But I need some input for this.

I have to add that I have been trying thinkering a lot.
I really want to get my nvidia card working with linux.

You can download the bumblebee-bugreport here:

ANY HELP IS HIGHLY APPRECIATED.

THANK YOU.

Hi, you are mixing up different mechanism. Either use prime, or bumblebee, not both.
