Alberto, assigning to you as you assigned the duplicate bug to you and
expressed interest in this.

Bryan's initial attempt needs at least

Wants=lightdm.service
Before=lightdm.service

which is a direct translation of "start on starting lightdm".

I don't understand the $prime_supported` stuff, as this *only* starts
start-nvidia-persistenced if $supported is empty and says "Sorry but
your hardware configuration is not supported". To me this looks like an
error in the upstart script, but I could just misunderstand what it
does.

Title:
  [systemd] nvidia-prime package needs systemd unit or init.d script

Status in nvidia-prime package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  With systemd as pid 1

  nvidia-prime package is pulled as a dependency of nvidia-331-updates package.
  When I tried to install the nvidia-331-updates package it gave me an error of installation on nvidia-prime due to

  "initctl: Unable to connect to Upstart: Failed to connect to socket
  /com/ubuntu/upstart: Connection refused"

  The full terminal stdout is

  Setting up nvidia-prime (0.6.2) ...
  initctl: Unable to connect to Upstart: Failed to connect to socket /com/ubuntu/upstart: Connection refused
  invoke-rc.d: unknown initscript, /etc/init.d/nvidia-prime not found.
  dpkg: error processing package nvidia-prime (--configure):
  subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 100

  and at the end

  Errors were encountered while processing:
   nvidia-prime
  E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

  This problem didn't prevent the nvidia-331-updates package from being
  installed. Nvidia driver installed properly and have worked as it
  should after a reboot, but the nvidia-prime "didn't make it".
