Nvidia X server - cannot switch to GPU from my Intel, because of python import error
4
When I try to switch to my NVIDIA this happens:
ERROR: Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/share/screen-resolution-extra/nvidia-prime.py", line 22, in
<module>
import sys, dbus, logging
ImportError: No module named 'dbus'
If it helps there is another error:
** Message: PRIME: Requires offloading
** Message: PRIME: is it supported? yes
ERROR: nvidia-settings could not find the registry key file. This file should
have been installed along with this driver at
/usr/share/nvidia/nvidia-application-profiles-key-documentation. The
application profiles will continue to work, but values cannot be
prepopulated or validated, and will not be listed in the help text.
Please see the README for possible values and descriptions.
along with lots of gtk theme parsing errors.
I have GT 635M GPU and I'm running ubuntu 16.04 LTS with gnome desktop installed.
Please help :/
EDIT 1:
I tried running
sudo apt-get install python-dbus
and got
python-dbus is already the newest version (1.2.0-3).
Switching GPU still produces the same error.
EDIT 2:
I edited the nvidia-prime.py as Sneetsher suggested. Running nvidia-settings won't print the sys.version and sys.path, but this is the output if I run the script directly.

I had the same error. I fixed it by running sudo nvidia-settings instead of nvidia-settings. This adds the necessary privileges to launch the application.

If you're still having problems with overheating, I'd recommend installingtlptoo. I'm glad it worked!

I gave up and went back to Windows + WSL. On Linux I had to switch manually between on-board/off-board, which forced me to logoff and login in order for it to work properly, and it still overheated with the GPU turned on.

Fair enough. On the other hand, now you'll incur the overhead of WSL. Best of luck!

Welcome to Ask Ubuntu, That is a python module and could be installed using
sudo apt-get install python-dbus. Try it & if it didn't work, edit & update the question with the new error message.– user.dz

So either corrupted or it uses python3. Try again with
sudo apt-get install --reinstall python-dbus python3-dbus– user.dz

@Sneetsher still the same results. BTW running python in console and typing "import dbus" doesn't produce an error.
