Public bug reported:

I'm using a Lenovo laptop with an intel/nvidia Optimus compatible graphics solution. While being able to use prime-select to switch between those cards with Ubuntu 14.X and official nvidia driversit stopped working when switching to ubuntu 15.04 and newer drivers. I'm not sure when the problem first arises, but I'm stucking with it for almost 5 month.
In the meanwhile I stumbled upon errors in xorg.log pointing to insufficient permissions related to DRM and intel driver. I switched to a newer kernel 4.1.x and the xorg.log error had gone, but the general problem remains. A month ago I switched to a wily daily build to test if the bug still exists there. I did a fresh install but the problem is still the same.
