ubuntu-drivers-common (1:0.4.23) artful; urgency=medium
[ Alberto Milone ]
* gpu-manager.{c|py}:
- Disable persistence mode before powering down the dGPU.
If persistence mode is not disabled, gpu-manager will not be
able to unload the nvidia module.
- Add support for using custom xorg.confs with the nvidia
driver (LP: #1667198).
Custom xorg files can be named "non-hybrid" (for non hybrid
systems), "hybrid-performance", and "hybrid-power-saving",
and will have to placed in the /usr/share/gpu-manager.d
directory.
The directory can be overridden by passing another directory
along with the "--custom-xorg-conf-path" parameter.
- Add tests for the custom xorg.confs code and for amdgpu-pro
hybrid support.
[ Kai-Heng Feng ]
* debian/control:
- Add build dependency on libkmod-dev.
* gpu-manager.c:
- Detect and handle switchable graphics with the amdgpu-pro driver.
AMDGPU-Pro has its own script to switch between powersaving and
performance mode.
Some machines allow enabling switchable graphics, or disabling
the iGPU completely, thus leaving only the dGPU on. This new code
simply detects the different profiles supported by AMD, and
enables powersaving mode when possible.
