Public bug reported:

The driver for the intel part of xorg.conf should be modesetting instead
of intel, see also: https://askubuntu.com/questions/580693/black-screen-
when-in-nvidia-mode-after-updating-to-kernel-3-13-0-45

proposed/view/head:/share/hybrid/gpu-manager.c#L1588

I am seeing this on a trusty system with nvidia-346 driver on both 3.16
and 3.13 kernels.

The end result of doing this worng is that system boots up with black
screen.

As a workaround I have commented out gpu-manager in /etc/init/gpu-
manager.conf (when starting lightdm) and in /sbin/prime-switch (when
stopping lightdm).
