Most hybrid laptops are mux-less meaning there are no displays physically
connected to the discrete GPU.  For display you have to use the integrated GPU.
 The discrete GPU can only be used for offscreen rendering.  Do display that
rendering, it has to be copied to the integrated GPU.  There is limited support
for this in newer xservers (1.13.x and newer).
