If we try to install nvidia drivers with nvidia-prime, the second will want to install lightdm as it depends of it. Whats more lightdm will want to install a lot of other packages. What we need: nvidia-prime to support sddm 1. #lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu Vivid Vervet (development branch) Release: 15.04 2. #apt-cache policy nvidia-prime nvidia-prime: Installed: (none) Candidate: 0.7 Version table: 0.7 0 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ vivid/main amd64 Packages 3. What you expected to happen ? nvidia-prime should work with sddm and do not require lightdm and all its dependencies (unity packges) 4. What happened instead ? nvidia-prime wants to install lightdm as a dependency and a lot of other packages: #sudo apt-get install nvidia-prime Reading package lists...
