i tried several tutorials to poweroff my discrete graphic along the internet, like this also tried TLP, and this
the laptop that i use is HP Pavilion 15 p002la (it comes with R5 IGP & R7 m260 (DIS)

Obs:
The command echo OFF > /sys/kernel/debug/vgaswitcheroo/switch does nothing (not showing DynOff on DIS)
Update:
After severals times to trying poweroff the card, last atempt was
add ppa from "updated graphic drivers" from Oibaf's launchpad and the output of switcheroo (cat /sys/kernel/debug/vgaswitcheroo/switch) was:
0:IGD:+:Pwr:0000:00:01.0
