Title:
  [HP Pavilion dv7-4272us] Display glitches occur

Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Display glitches occur every time the display changes from the IGD to
  DIS, and vice versa.

  I'm trying to _keep the DIS GPU *turned off* in order to save power
  and keep this laptop cool.

  I can't tell who keeps turning the DIS GPU back on, but I'd love to know how to keep the DIS GPU locked OFF.
