Prefer Intel over Nvidia graphics to avoid nouveau
There are several reasons to prefer Intel graphics over Nvidia due the poor state of the nouveau driver:
- Power drain issues: #18044 (closed)
- Driver instability: a lot of graphics issues are reported to Helpdesk, and they often have Nvidia cards in use
- Poor support for recent hardware (my impression is that it's way worse compared to support for recent Intel hardware)
So, for systems with an Intel + Nvidia combo, preferring to use the Intel card seems like it can avoid exposing users to a bunch of pain.
We could even consider preferring Intel cards over AMD too, since recent chipsets probably have spotty support as well, which could be investigated.
