Bug Description
bbswitch no longer works for me in Ubuntu 14.04 (I was using it with nvidia-prime). Even though the package is installed and no errors are displayed when installing it, it doesn't work - "/proc/
$cat /proc/acpi/bbswitch
cat: /proc/acpi/
And when I try to load it with modprobe I get "modprobe: FATAL: Module bbswitch not found".

This might also happen because of the recent ubuntu- drivers- common update
