Seeing that you released to unstable 2 days ago, but doing an apt-get
update doesn't change anything for me.
Should I conclude that my mirror is late? (seeing the package when
browing it though...

Yes, actually I just didn't do any bumblebee setup of whatever related
to nvidia drivers, but you're right that it doesn't mean my chip is
disabled.
Unfortunately, I just figured out that I cannot disable the chip since
the wiring is the following:
```
$ sudo ls -l /sys/class/drm/card*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 avril 12 15:12 /sys/class/drm/card0 ->
../../devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.0/drm/card0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 avril 12 15:12 /sys/class/drm/card0-LVDS-1 ->
../../devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.0/drm/card0/card0-LVDS-1
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 avril 12 15:12 /sys/class/drm/card0-VGA-1 ->
../../devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.0/drm/card0/card0-VGA-1
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 avril 12 15:12 /sys/class/drm/card1 ->
../../devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:01.0/0000:01:00.0/drm/card1
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 avril 12 15:12 /sys/class/drm/card1-DP-1 ->
../../devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:01.0/0000:01:00.0/drm/card1/card1-DP-1
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 avril 12 15:12 /sys/class/drm/card1-DP-2 ->
../../devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:01.0/0000:01:00.0/drm/card1/card1-DP-2
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 avril 12 15:12 /sys/class/drm/card1-DP-3 ->
../../devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:01.0/0000:01:00.0/drm/card1/card1-DP-3
```
So in my case, LVDS-1 and DP-1 connected.

Just did an apt-get upgrade + gdm3 stop/start > bug > gdm3 stop +
dpkg-i <old_packages>.
You'll find in attachment the full journald logs (between the gdm3
start and stop), concretely if I clean the thing a bit (remove pids,
etc.) and do a diff, I see nothing obvious.. (I mean, there are a lot
of errors, but present in both cases).

Disabled everything, same behavior.

OK, it seems unrelated (and older anyway).
```
$ lspci | grep 00:1f.2
00:1f.2 RAID bus controller: Intel Corporation 82801 Mobile SATA
Controller [RAID mode] (rev 04)
```

True, the NVIDIA GPU.
```
$ lspci | grep 01:00.0
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GK107GLM [Quadro
K2000M] (rev a1)
```

Tried these, didn't change anything.
