Bug Description
On a brand new laptop with GTX 1050 TI and Kaby Lake graphics I cannot switch back to intel's GPU after installing the nvidia drivers + nvidia-prime. prime-select lists the nvidia driver as well as a prime variant as the only available alternatives. When switching to intel and logging out I get failed logins. If I reboot my screen freezes on login. It is possible to do a hard reboot, switch back to nvidia mode in a TTY, reboot and login after this happens.
