Public bug reported:
The nvidia-persistenced tool should be packaged and included in Ubuntu.
One package will be used by all the nvidia flavours.
Quoting NVIDIA:
"The nvidia-persistenced utility is used to enable persistent software
state in the NVIDIA driver.
When persistence mode is enabled, the daemon prevents the driver from releasing
device state when the device is not in use.
This can improve the startup time of new clients in this scenario."
The daemon is also particularly useful to work around some bugs where
the kernel reports the GPU falling off the bus.
Persistence mode is disabled by default and it's something that users
can enable manually.
