[Bug 1778011] Re: SRU: PRIME Power Saving mode draws too much power

[alex morris]

With kernel 4.18 and 410.104 drivers, it seems to work properly for me.

Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS on a Dell Inspiron Gaming 7000 with nvidia GeForce
GTX 1050 Ti, Gnome.

I am here because a couple patches ago, I lost ability to resume from
sleep.  Opening the lid, it would just hang in black screen, requiring
hold of power button +5 sec to turn off.  I tried the blacklist-nouveau
and bbswitch-dkms tricks, no difference.  On top of that configuration,
I upgraded to kernel 4.18, still no difference.

I found a repo for drivers > 390, http://ppa.launchpad.net/graphics-
drivers/ppa/ubuntu

I reverted previous changes, uninstalled bbswitch-dkms, and eventually
got drivers, libs and nvidia-* packages for version 410.104 installed
properly.

Fixed.  I can once again close the lid, the laptop sleeps; open the lid,
the laptop wakes and gives the beaver login screen.  Awesome.

Thanks Alberto and other devs for your work.
