[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1262068] Re: nvidia-prime should support gdm also
This bug was fixed in the package gdm3 - 3.20.1-1ubuntu1
---
gdm3 (3.20.1-1ubuntu1) yakkety; urgency=medium
* Team upload.
* Merge with Debian. Remaining changes:
+ README.Debian: update for correct paths in Ubuntu
+ Use upstream Xsession script
+ control.in:
- Drop recommends on desktop-base
- depend on bash for ubuntu_config_error_dialog.patch
- Add a transitional gdm package
+ rules:
- Don't override default user/group
- --enable-gdm-xsession to install upstream Xsession script
- override of dh_installinit with --no-start to avoid session being killed
+ rules, README.Debian, gdm3.8.pod:
Use upstream custom.conf instead of daemon.conf
+ Migrate settings to gdm3 paths, this can be dropped in 16.10
- Migrate pam files as per debian structure
- gdm.preinst, gdm3.postinst: Move conffiles to new location (/etc/gdm3)
- gdm.postinst: purge the old gdm dconf profile
- generate_config: update gdm user homedir, done here since systemd blocks
usermod from working in maintscripts
- gdm3.config: force transition of dconf selection to gdm3
+ gdm3.{postinst,postrm}: rename user and group back to gdm
+ gdm3.postinst: don't kill gdm on upgrade
+ gdm3.*.pam: Make pam_env read ~/.pam_environment (LP: #952185)
+ ubuntu_run_xsession.d.patch
+ ubuntu_upstart_event.patch:
- emit upstart events
+ ubuntu_xresources_is_a_dir.patch
when running systemd init
+ ubuntu_nvidia_prime.patch:
- Add hook to run prime-offload (as root) and prime-switch if
nvidia-prime is installed (LP: #1262068)
+ revert_override_LANG_with_accountservices.patch:
- On Ubuntu accountservices only stores the language and not the
full locale as needed by LANG.
+ ubuntu_config_error_dialog.patch:
- Show warning dialog in case of error in ~/.profile etc. and
don't let a syntax error make the login fail (LP: #678421).
+ 09_default_session.patch:
- Dropped, all the other Ubuntu flavors use LightDM and it only takes a
gsettings override to set a different default session
gdm3 (3.20.1-1) unstable; urgency=medium
* New upstream release.
* Restore debian/patches/09_default_session.patch as we postponed the switch
to Wayland.
* Upload to unstable.
gdm3 (3.20.0-2) experimental; urgency=medium
* debian/rules: Switch back the initial VT to vt1 (Closes: #819423)
* Drop /usr/share/gdm/greeter/dbus-1 files, gdm/gnome-shell doesn't try to
start telepathy-mission-control and gnome-online-accounts anymore.
* Drop debian/patches/09_default_session.patch completely as we want to
default to the wayland session for now.
* debian/default.desktop.in: Update the Name of the Comment to make it clear
that it will start the X11 default session of the system.
gdm3 (3.20.0-1) experimental; urgency=medium
* Drop debian/patches/93_disable_gvfs.patch
- superseded by upstream commit 5e81151a147
"launch-environment: disable gvfs except in initial setup mode"
* Bump gnome-shell dependency to >= 3.19.92
- new interactions between gdm and gnome-shell for session start
* New upstream release.
* Temporarily disable debian/patches/09_default_session.patch
- the System Default ("default") session is currently broken, so use
upstreams default ("gnome") while investigating.
gdm3 (3.19.92-1) experimental; urgency=medium
* New upstream release.
* Add build-dependency on xserver-xorg-dev for xorg-server.pc
- upstream configure.ac now checks for xserver version.
* Bump Standards-Version to 3.9.7.
* Refresh the following patches to apply:
- debian/patches/09_default_session.patch
- debian/patches/16_xserver_path.patch
- debian/patches/90_config_comments.patch
(Drop greeter section comments as that section was removed.)
- debian/patches/93_disable_gvfs.patch

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1262068] Re: nvidia-prime should support gdm also
Since a recent update on ubuntu-drivers-common and nvidia driver I am unable to select the NVIDIA GPU through nvidia-settings. When I try to do so, all I obtain is a blank dialog box with a forbidden sign and an 'OK' button. Before this update I was using the packages provided by ppa:darkxst/gdm- prime. Reading the comments above, I have edited the /etc/init/gpu-manager.conf file to add the 'or starting gdm' option but it did not change anything.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1262068] Re: nvidia-prime should support gdm also
I spent some more time and was able to get things working on my machine, so I though I'd share how. Note this is definitely a hack but it works and perhaps Alberto or Tim could give directions on a temporary fix that is less hacky while we wait for the official fix to be posted somewhere. 1. In /etc/gdm/Init/Defaut, add the line /sbin/prime-offload right before the exit 0. Or better, write your own script to call Default and then run prime-offload. 2. Unlike older version of nvidia-prime, newer versions don't appear to generate an xorg.conf file. But with my hack fix, it still needed when in nvidia mode. So after I do a prime-select nvidia I create an xorg.conf file in /etc/X11/ with the following contents: Section ServerLayout Identifier layout Screen 0 nvidia Inactive intel EndSection Section Device Identifier nvidia Driver nvidia BusID PCI:1:0:0 EndSection Section Screen Identifier nvidia Device nvidia # Uncomment this line if your computer has no display devices connected to # the NVIDIA GPU. Leave it commented if you have display devices # connected to the NVIDIA GPU that you would like to use. Option UseDisplayDevice none EndSection Section Device Identifier intel Driver modesetting EndSection Section Screen Identifier intel Device intel EndSection ## Then reboot for nvidia mode. Note that when you want to enable intel mode, you'll need to remove this file and reboot. Like I said, a total hack but it enables nvidia mode for me which is all I needed for now. One other issue I saw was that the /etc/init/nvidia-prime.conf has some specific use of lightdm. Whatever it's doing there, I guess it needs to do for gdm as well. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nvidia-prime in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1262068 Title: nvidia-prime should support gdm also Status in Ubuntu GNOME: Triaged Status in “gdm” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “nvidia-prime” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “ubuntu-drivers-common” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “nvidia-prime” source package in Precise: Fix Released Bug description: On Ubuntu GNOME we ship gdm by default, however nvidia-prime depends on lightdm.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1262068] Re: nvidia-prime should support gdm also
Hello, Is there more to this fix than the latest version of nvidia-prime plus the gpu-manager.conf addition? I've tried using nvidia-prime 0.6.2 plush the gpu-manager.conf changes but no luck. I'm also seeing different behavior than when I've tried nvidia-prime and prime-indicator on Ubuntu 12.04 in that a call to prime select nvidia does not cause a prime generated xorg.conf file to be written to /etc/X11/. Perhaps this is an unrelated issue though. When trying to debug my problem I also ran into another prime or prime- indicator lightdm config file that was specific to lightdm, though I can't find it now. I just remember a light that had start or upstart in it along with lightdm but there was no gdm anywhere in the file.

nvidia-prime 0.5.2 should fix at least use case 1 i.e. the single graphics card use case. It still won't work with hybrid graphics but at least gdm and kdm users won't be forced to install lightdm if they install the nvidia driver. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nvidia-prime in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1262068 Title: nvidia-prime should support gdm also Status in Ubuntu GNOME: Triaged Status in “nvidia-prime” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: On Ubuntu GNOME we ship gdm by default, however nvidia-prime depends on lightdm.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1262068] Re: nvidia-prime should support gdm also
This bug was fixed in the package nvidia-prime - 0.5.2 --- nvidia-prime (0.5.2) trusty; urgency=low * debian/control: - Add an alternative dependency on gdm and kdm so that gdm or kdm users are not forced to install lightdm now that nvidia depends on nvidia-prime. This fixes only the single graphics card use case (hybrid graphics won't still work without lightdm) but it's a step in the right direction (LP: #1262068). * debian/preinst.in: - Set the lightdm configuration bits only if lightdm is the default display manager. -- Alberto Milone alberto.mil...@canonical.com Fri, 20 Dec 2013 15:43:58 +0100 ** Changed in: nvidia-prime (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged = Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nvidia-prime in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1262068 Title: nvidia-prime should support gdm also Status in Ubuntu GNOME: Triaged Status in “nvidia-prime” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: On Ubuntu GNOME we ship gdm by default, however nvidia-prime depends on lightdm.

If gdm supports running scripts when starting a greeter seession or right after stopping X, then it's doable.
