Title: Handle EGL alternatives and use different drivers for the LTS stacks Status in HWE Next: New Status in nvidia-prime package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in ubuntu-drivers-common package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in nvidia-prime source package in Trusty: In Progress Status in ubuntu-drivers-common source package in Trusty: In Progress Bug description: A recent security update of the nvidia driver provided new EGL libraries, which are not handled by the current gpu-manager (ubuntu- drivers-common) and nvidia-prime in 14.04. This problem is fixed in Xenial or newer. ubuntu-drivers-common also does not distinguish between the different LTS stacks, and this is a major problem on Intel+Nvidia hybrid systems, as anything running stacks older than 14.04.5 will require using the intel driver with SNA acceleration, whereas the rest should use the modesetting driver. Boot parameters can also be passed to use other driver combinations (for unsupported use cases).
