** Description changed:

  nvidia-graphics-drivers-460
  
  [Impact]
  
   * To aid installer testing of the correct kernels with/without nvidia,
  it would be helpful to test nvidia driver installation in qemu VMs
  without actually needing nvidia hardware.
  
   * We already have `Modaliases: meta(dmi:*:pnUBUNTUQEMUTEST:*)` to test
  installs with oem-qemu-meta (aka certified install)
  
   * It would be useful to add nvidia modalias of
  `dmi:*:pvrUBUNTUNVIDIATEST:*` to nvidia-graphics-drivers-460
  
   * This way we will be able to test generic with/without nvidia; and oem
  with/without nvidia. By combinding pn & pvr dmi modaliases.
  
  [Test Case]
  
-  * Setup ubuntu qemu libvirt vm with dmi sysinfo setting product version
- to UBUNTUNVIDIATEST
+  * Setup ubuntu qemu libvirt vm with dmi sysinfo setting product version to 
UBUNTUNVIDIATEST
+ I.e.
+ <sysinfo type="smbios">
+   <system>
+       <entry name="version">UBUNTUNVIDIATEST</entry>
+   </system>
+ </sysinfo>
+ <os>
+   ...
+   <smbios mode="sysinfo"/>
+ </os>
  
   * Boot and execute ubuntu-drivers list
  
   * Observe that nvidia drivers show up as options.
  
  [Where problems could occur]
  
   * Additional mod alias will be exposed in the package metadata, and
  whilst it will be installed it will not be loaded. It is purely an
  installer test interface.
