This is not the same issue az bug #1310489. My system is a Dell Inspiron N7110 with nvidia optimus. I use the closed-source nvidia drivers. The problem: After a switch with prime-select intel my xorg.conf is removed, which is required to make the intel config operational. Upon switching back to nvidia (prime-select nvidia) gpu-manager regenerates my xorg.conf The problem is, that the default xorg.conf is broken (does not enable me to use the internal laptop screen), so it needs to be modified. This, however, can not be done now, as changes will always be overwritten. Note the difference from #1310489: We need a way to configure the generation, not just be able to preserve an already present file.
