** Description changed:

+ [Impact]
+ 
+  * It should be possible to change DRM driver without rebooting.
+  * It should be possible to correctly suspend & resume, whilst preserving 
driver state.
+  * This bug is for userspace/logind fixes, required to get above working.
+  * Related kernel change is

+  * 
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/5775b843a619b3c93f946e2b55a208d9f0f48b59
+ 
+ [Test Case]
+ 
+  * Test and verify that on machines with Nvidia discrete graphics, one
+ can change performance/power-saving modes without rebooting.
+ 
+ [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.
