Bug Description
I'm currently using a laptop with optimus technology and NVidia graphic card. Last year (2013) I installed NVidia-prime and it worked perfectly. However, the very recent update (2014/1/29) broke NVidia-prime. The screen turned into complete blackness after Ubuntu splash screen (the purple one), and was even not showing cursor. However, from several difference behaviors I am sure that everything else (like terminals, keyboard inputs and even games) is working properly after login.
Ubuntu version: 14.04 (Trusty Tahr)
nvidia-prime version: 0.5.4
