That did it - I’m able to boot into hybrid graphics mode now. However when I switch to intel (sudo prime-select intel), it kicks me out into TTY - I’m then able to do startx and make it work. However on next reboot I’m stuck in TTY again, and this time startx won’t work. I attached nvidia-bug-report.sh output in that condition. Also of interest is Xorg.0.log after the startx failure:

Looks like nouveau driver is loaded - but I’m fairly positive it was blacklisted:
$ cat /etc/modprobe.d/nvidia-graphics-drivers.conf
blacklist nouveau
blacklist lbm-nouveau
alias nouveau off
alias lbm-nouveau off
There are also a few entries of “xf86EnableIOPorts: failed to set IOPL for I/O (Operation not permitted)” - not sure what this refers to.
If I do sudo prime-select nvidia at that time, I can “startx”, but it’s stuck at login prompt loop. Rebooting brings things back to normal, but I’m not using Intel card at that point.
I’m almost there :|
