[Error] daemon returned error- "does not have switchable graphics"

[miikkuu]

daemon returned error- "does not have switchable graphics" while trying to switch graphics with command :-

$ sudo system76-power graphics ...

OS:Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS

I have Two Graphics Card in my System.
[Amd and Intel Integrated]

But by default only the Integrated gfx is up.

$ lspci -nn | grep -E 'VGA|Display'
Returned Two Graphics as shown.

But using -: $ lspci | grep VGA
Returned only one !
VGA : integrated

Why Can't I switch my gfx card?
How to solve this???

Adding
amdgpu.si_support=1 amdgpu.cik_support=1 radeon.si_support=0 radeon.cik_support=0

to my kernel boot options allows me to use DRI_PRIME=1 before cmds now.
