This bug was fixed in the package jockey - 0.9.7-0ubuntu7.10
---------------
jockey (0.9.7-0ubuntu7.10) precise-proposed; urgency=low
* data/handlers/fglrx.py:
- Show the driver as enabled when pxpress is in use.
Thanks to Doro Wu for the patch (LP: #1196848).
- Add handlers for -experimental-{12|13}.
- Only -experimental-13 supports hybrid graphics.
* data/handlers/nvidia.py:
- Add handlers for 319/-updates 304/-updates.
- Only 319/-updates support hybrid graphics.
- Make sure to remove the correct nvidia-settings
flavour.
* data/handlers/{fglrx|nvidia}.py:
- Add support for Hybrid Graphics (LP: #1198942):
+ Driver handlers now need to state that they support
hybrid graphics and subclass either the
_NvidiaDriverHybridBase class or the FglrxDriverHybrid
class.
+ Drivers which don't claim to support hybrid graphics
will not show up on hybrid systems.
+ If the nvidia-prime or the fglrx-pxpress packages are
not available, the drivers won't be available on
hybrid systems. This avoids breaking systems which
require further configuration which only these two
packages provide.
+ Jockey doesn't touch the xorg.conf when dealing with
hybrid graphics (as either nvidia-prime or
fglrx-pxpress will take care of it).
+ Hybrid Graphics is only supported on systems which
use Raring's backported X and kernel.
* jockey/xorg_driver.py:
- Add supports_hybrid_graphics class attribute.
- Add has_hybrid_graphics class attribute.
- Add better support for faking devices and packages.
- Ignore transitional packages.
* jockey/oslib.py:
- Add package_transitional() method.
- Add package_available() method.
- Make current_xorg_video_abi take into account
backported packages.
- Catch additional arguments in package_installed().
This gives us some flexibility when using fake
devices for testing.
- Add some checks for raring's backported xserver.
* tests/hybridgraphics.py:
- Add coverage for hybrid graphics.
* tests/oslib.py:
- Deal with the multiple video abis that drivers may
support.
- Make sure that the kernel headers are available before
failing.
* tests/sandbox.py:
- Report a more compliant fake X ABI.
- Update package_installed() to match the one in oslib.py.

Bug description:
Title: Jockey returns wrong enablement status of fglrx within iGPU
mode
[Steps]
1. make sure dGPU is active
$ aticonfig --pxl
PowerXpress: Discrete GPU is active (High-Performance mode).
2. $ jockey -l will show xorg:fglrx is enabled
~$ jockey-text -l | grep fglrx
kmod:fglrx_experimental_12 - Experimental AMD binary Xorg driver and kernel
module (Proprietary, Disabled, Not in use)
xorg:fglrx - ATI/AMD proprietary FGLRX graphics driver (Proprietary, Enabled,
In use)
xorg:fglrx_experimental_9 - ATI/AMD proprietary FGLRX graphics driver
(**experimental** beta) (Proprietary, Disabled, Not in use)
3. Switch to iGPU
$ sudo aticonfig --px-igpu
PowerXpress: Integrated GPU is selected (Power-Saving mode), please restart
Xserver(s) for changes to take effect!
[Expected result]
jockey-text -l shows fglrx is enabled
[Actual result]
fglrx is disabled
$ jockey-text -l | grep fglrx
kmod:fglrx_experimental_12 - Experimental AMD binary Xorg driver and kernel
module (Proprietary, Disabled, Not in use)
xorg:fglrx - ATI/AMD proprietary FGLRX graphics driver (Proprietary,
Disabled, In use)
xorg:fglrx_experimental_9 - ATI/AMD proprietary FGLRX graphics driver
(**experimental** beta) (Proprietary, Disabled, Not in use)
