setting the PRIME profile back into place for NVIDIA.

This causes the gdm issues, I suspect because this promotes the eGPU to primary and there is some kind of resource sharing problem.

So, the way it MUST be configured is "ON DEMAND" PRIME -- which allows the eGPU to be detected, and allows logins to occur with Xorg. However, I am almost sure that this means most rendering is done via the Intel GPU, and not the NVIDIA GPU.

I can see this lack of utilization by using nvidia-settings, I see the GPU utilization is 0%.

It now has me curious if there is an intel-gpu-equivalent utilization tool?
