I have tested the new packages here, and I can confirm that they solve the problem.

[Regression Potential] * There are changes to the fd handling that are passed to logind. At worst, fd to the NVIDIA driver will still be held, and thus one would continue to not be able to switch graphics modes without rebooting. [Other Info] * original bug report: refer to https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/6908 we need that solution to make NVIDIA dGPU switching works. impacted issue: https://bugs.launchpad.net/somerville/+bug/1774326 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/oem-priority/+bug/1777099/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
