Hello Alberto,

I cannot follow your steps from 2 to 3, since 3D controller will
disappear, it is not able to  switch back to nvidia.

In between step 2 and 3, I have to shutdown the system first in order to
bring back nvidia controller.

My steps:

1. Enable nvidia driver then reboot

2. Switching to intel then reboot

3. Shutdown the system (because nvidia controller is missing)

4. Switch back to nvidia, prime-select nvidia && logout
