This bug was fixed in the package jockey - 0.9.7-0ubuntu7.13
---------------
jockey (0.9.7-0ubuntu7.13) precise-proposed; urgency=low
* jockey/xorg_driver.py, tests/hybridgraphics.py:
- Add support for systems with two or more AMD GPUs.
This is very useful now that AMD's APUs have been
released (LP: #1272311).
- Adjust the tests so that they no longer fail when
dealing with systems with multiple AMD GPUs (now
dealt with by the fglrx-pxpress package).
jockey (0.9.7-0ubuntu7.12) precise-proposed; urgency=low
* data/handlers/nvidia.py:
- Add support for nvidia-331 and nvidia-331-updates
(LP: #1259237).

Bug description:
SRU request:
Please accept the following packages in precise-proposed.
fglrx-pxpress
jockey
fglrx-installer-experimental-13
[Rationale]
This is the result of the HWE effort to enable AMD Kaveri GPUs, and systems
with more than one AMD GPU. This will become more common now that AMD APUs can
be combined with AMD GPUs.
[Impact]
Without this work, AMD Kaveri GPUs won't work properly and users won't be
able to make use of all the AMD GPUs in their system.
[Test Case]
After installing the update, users should be able to boot the system as
usual, with no regressions of any kind.
* Systems with a single AMD card: there won't be any change except
that Kaveri GPUs will be detected and will work properly.
* Systems with two or more AMD GPUs: fglrx-pxpress will try to enable
all the available AMD GPUs and will also detect and reconfigure X when
users remove one of the cards.
[Regression Potential]
Low. fglrx-installer-experimental-13 is not automatically installed, and
fglrx-pxpress is installed only when dealing with a multi GPU system.
Furthermore the change in Jockey is minimal, and only extends what we mean by
hybrid graphics, so as to make sure that fglrx-pxpress is installed also when
dealing with systems with multiple AMD GPUs.
