Nvidia driver is not loaded & prime not supported [SOLVED]

Post by cichociemny »

Hi and happy Easter to all of you
I have a problem with prime on my laptop. When im switching graphics to intel, nvidia settings window is becoming empty and in the terminal i have error saying that nvidia driver is not loaded. I have secure boot disabled, tried many drivers versions and i still dont have any idea how to fix it :( .

That comes from recent buggy updates to the nvidia-prime and ubuntu-drivers-common packages.
Read this topic for a temporary solution:

The message about the Nvidia driver not loading is normal when Intel mode is selected.
