Severity: wishlist
Dear Maintainer,
Ubuntu has `nvidia-prime` [0] package that allows to switch
integrated/descrete card "permanently" (until `nvidia-prime
is executed with different arguments) with single command.
This allows, for example, to enter desktop session using discrete
graphics card, without need to launch every 3D acceleration demanding
application through terminal with `optirun`, which is annoying.
I suggest to port nvidia-prime package from Ubuntu,
or implement something similarly convenient in Debian.
