I've been testing 1.19.x in 17.04 pre-release for a few weeks, hoping to
take advantage of the Nvidia PRIME synchronisation fix for laptops with
Optimus hybrid graphics. As of 1.19.3, PRIME sync works (with a modprobe
fix related to the nvidia driver). This is a huge improvement for nvidia
Optimus users (i.e. most high-end laptops I suspect), since it means no
more screen tearing on the laptop's LCD panel when hybrid graphics mode
is activated. My testing has been on a Thinkpad P50.  Really hope 1.19
gets into 17.04, and then into 16.04.3
