I'm having an issue similar to #33, but with Intel/Nvidia. When switching to Nvidia and rebooting, the screen turns black and I need to Shift+Alt+F2 to switch back to hybrid. That being said I tested my system with Optimus-Manager and had no issues and my problem with transparency in KDE were fixed.

This all probably because the xrandr script is not run anymore so the display manager can't setup the xorg correctly.

I think we need to restore the old behavior where the script is setup automatically.

@geminis3 I reimplemented it with in my fork, plus did the amd tearing fix and it seems to work on my system with no problem. Will do a pull request so check it.
