Title:
nvidia prime causing mouse and screen to freeze
Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
I upgraded to Ubuntu Trusty Tahr . Currently running with updates as of 6th Feb. 64bit.
After installing nvidia-prime and nvidia-331, i can see frequent mouse freezes. Once the mouse is frozen, it doesn't allow Alt+Tab functionality. Only way to get out of this is by pressing Ctrl+Alt+F1 . I can bring back by unloading and loading the psmouse module
modprobe -r psmouse.
