[Bug 1268771] Re: NVIDIA Prime fails with Linux 3.13

 

GPU : Nvidia GTX 660M 
Driver : nvidia-graphics-drivers-340.76

Tried all drivers with purging before installing and nothing. When i try "sudo prime-select nvidia" i have black screen at next login. Btw i even tried to log in entering password and then opened terminal. After that i did "sudo restart now" and i saw restarting screen but it froze =(.
The only thing i can do is CTRL+ALT+F6, login and
sudo prime-select intel
sudo service lightdm restart
And then the login screen appears.
