** Description changed: nvidia-graphics-drivers-460 [Impact] * To aid installer testing of the correct kernels with/without nvidia, it would be helpful to test nvidia driver installation in qemu VMs without actually needing nvidia hardware. * We already have `Modaliases: meta(dmi:*:pnUBUNTUQEMUTEST:*)` to test installs with oem-qemu-meta (aka certified install) * It would be useful to add nvidia modalias of `dmi:*:pvrUBUNTUNVIDIATEST:*` to nvidia-graphics-drivers-460 * This way we will be able to test generic with/without nvidia; and oem with/without nvidia. By combinding pn & pvr dmi modaliases. [Test Case] - * Setup ubuntu qemu libvirt vm with dmi sysinfo setting product version - to UBUNTUNVIDIATEST + * Setup ubuntu qemu libvirt vm with dmi sysinfo setting product version to UBUNTUNVIDIATEST + I.e. + <sysinfo type="smbios"> + <system> + <entry name="version">UBUNTUNVIDIATEST</entry> + </system> + </sysinfo> + <os> + ... + <smbios mode="sysinfo"/> + </os> * Boot and execute ubuntu-drivers list * Observe that nvidia drivers show up as options. [Where problems could occur] * Additional mod alias will be exposed in the package metadata, and whilst it will be installed it will not be loaded. It is purely an installer test interface.
