Bug cofirmed in Lenovo Ideapad S410p with NVIDIA GE 720M with Ubuntu 14.04 and nvidia 331
All the previous reports are the same here. I dont have Bumblebee I have nvidia-prime (0.6.2) how can I install the 0.6.6 version?

So far we have dealt with this problem with system specific quirks based on DMI information. This some times gives us false positives or doesn't cover all systems (it's hard to quirk all systems). We should simply try with and without that option and use whatever works best for the system. This should cover all cases with no need for additional quirks. [Impact] * Loading bbswitch with the wrong option causes the module to fail from loading which, in turn, prevents hybrid graphics from working properly. [Test Case] * Install the nvidia binary driver, reboot, and check that the NVIDIA GPU is enabled (attach your /var/log/gpu-manager.log) - Expected: the NVIDIA GPU is enabled. - Bad behavior: the system switches back to the intel driver and the NVIDIA GPU is not used. [Regression Potential] * Low. Systems that currently work will keep working as usual, the ones that currently fail should finally work. [Other Info] * N/A -- I did a fresh install of 14.04 the day it was released. I use a XPS 15z laptop form Dell with hybrid graphics (Intel HD 3000 (probably) and Nvidia Geforce GT 525M). Booting doesn't work out of the box, but by setting GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="acpi_backlight=vendor dell_laptop.backlight=0 quiet splash" in /etc/default/grub it works. acpi=off when installing, removed that from the grub file when installed. I expected that the Prime feature introduced in kernel 3.12 (kernel 3.13.x here) would let me switch between the Intel and Nvidia cards as i like, instead of using Bumblebee, which doesn't work properly with everything. I've installed and tried both the nvidia-331 and nvidia-304 drivers. Exactly the same result from both. Attempting to switch to the Nvidia card in nvidia-settings (tried on almost all of the drivers available, including 331.38) resulted in an error message, in a new window, with no text. prime-switch in terminal gives this output: Segmentation fault (core dumped) Sudoing the process gives no output at all. No graphical performance boost either, still the Intel card... sudo prime-select nvidia gives this output: Error: alternatives are not set up properly Error: nvidia mode can't be enabled I've also tried Bumblebee (not PPA) a few times, but it's also unable to switch. I'm able to use the Intel card temporary, but I would really like to be able to use the full power of my computer...
