From Revision 66 to 47

Rev	Summary	Authors	Tags	Date
66	* Backport from utopic version 1:0.2.98.4: debian/tests/syst... * Backport from utopic version 1:0.2.98.4: debian/tests/system, tests/ubuntu_drivers.py, UbuntuDrivers/detect.py: - Revert the previous changes that made us switch from bcmwl to the open driver, as the latter (in order to be a full replacement) seems to require firmware that we cannot include in the Ubuntu image because of licensing issues (LP: #1481018).	Adam Conrad	1:0.2.91.11	8 years ago
65	* gpu-manager.c, gpu-manager.py: * gpu-manager.c, gpu-manager.py: - Use the amdconfig tool to configure multi-amd PXpress. This fixes a problem where the AMD control panel won't show an option to switch between power saving mode and performance mode on AMD+AMD hybrid systems (LP: #1410801). - The tests now reflect a more relaxed approach so that we do not overwrite configurations that are not supported (such as multiple xscreens set in the xorg.conf).	Alberto Milone	1:0.2.91.10	8 years ago
64	sl-modem plugin: Keep environment for aplay, just ensure it'... sl-modem plugin: Keep environment for aplay, just ensure it's using the C locale. This avoids staring pulseaudio twice and causing races for attaching devices to pulseaudio. (LP: #1296425)	Martin Pitt	1:0.2.91.9	9 years ago
63	* gpu-manager.c: * gpu-manager.c: - Refine checks for blacklisted modules, so that we don't end up catching false positives (LP: #1376966). Thanks to Pär Lindfors for the patch.	Alberto Milone	1:0.2.91.8	9 years ago
62	* gpu-manager.c, gpu-manager.py: * gpu-manager.c, gpu-manager.py: - Add support for testing core alternatives. This will be needed by fglrx. - Fix a regression that caused the gpu-manager to switch to mesa after enabling fglrx on hybrid systems (LP: #1310489). Also add a test case so that we don't regress in the future. - Check that either fglrx or nvidia is set in xorg.conf when xorg.conf is needed. - Check if kernel modules are blacklisted before choosing the driver (LP: #1310489). - Enable only GPUs with open drivers that have connected outputs. Attaching to GPUs that have no connected outputs would result in a black screen. - Allow RandR offloading even without bbswitch (LP: #1349282). - Fall back to mesa when failing to enable prime. - Do not try to enable prime if the nvidia driver is older than 331. - Do not abort if the settings for prime cannot be found. Try to create the file before failing.	Alberto Milone	1:0.2.91.7	9 years ago
61	* UbuntuDrivers/detect.py, debian/tests/system, tests/ubuntu... * UbuntuDrivers/detect.py, debian/tests/system, tests/ubuntu_drivers.py: - Do not autoinstall the broadcom driver. The open driver should be a better solution now (LP: #1306928), as the binary driver prevents a number of systems from using the wireless card. - Autoinstall linux-firmware-nonfree. This will help now that we no longer autoinstall Broadcom's binary driver. - Fix the relevant tests now that linux-firmware-nonfree has replaced bcmwl. * gpu-manager.c, tests/gpu-manager.py: - Ignore CRT displays when using PRIME. This works around systems whose BIOS provides a ghost output (LP: #1296020). - Check that we don't remove xorg.confs on 1st boot (as per the previous SRU). - Try harder when loading bbswitch (LP: #1310023). If loading bbswitch fails try with or without the "skip_optimus_dsm=1" option. Also, make sure that we trim dmi resources or matching will give us false positives. - Switch to intel/SNA for optimus systems (LP: #1326257). - Make sure to unload nvidia-uvm or nvidia won't be unloaded. - Make sure to walk properly the /dev/dri dir. This prevents the program from stopping when, for example /dev/dri/card1 is available while /dev/dri/card0 is not.	Alberto Milone	1:0.2.91.6	9 years ago
60	During first boot, don't remove existing xorg.conf. (LP: #13... During first boot, don't remove existing xorg.conf. (LP: #1307546)	Mario Limonciello	1:0.2.91.5	10 years ago
59	Force removal of jockey on upgrades. It has been replaced wi... Force removal of jockey on upgrades. It has been replaced with ubuntu-drivers-common two cycles ago, removed from trusty, and now just crashes due to API changes in aptdaemon. (LP: #1216193)	Martin Pitt	1:0.2.91.4	10 years ago
58	* gpu-manager.c: * gpu-manager.c: - Move away the xorg.conf if mesa is selected as a fallback and binary drivers are still in use in the xorg.conf. This will prevent X from failing when users on hybrid systems uninstall a binary driver.	Alberto Milone	1:0.2.91.3	10 years ago
57	* gpu-manager.c: * gpu-manager.c: - Always check that devices are bound to a driver. This works better than blacklisting the 0380 class, and should help systems such as the one in LP: #1301839.	Alberto Milone	1:0.2.91.2	10 years ago
56	* debian/control, debian/rules: * debian/control, debian/rules: - Obsolete and replace fglrx-pxpress. The gpu-manager already deals with AMD GPUs.	Alberto Milone	1:0.2.91.1	10 years ago
55	* debian/control: * debian/control: - Add build dependency on libdrm-dev. * debian/rules: - Remove /etc/init/hybrid-gfx.conf. - Also remove the current upstart job from the architectures that don't ship gpu-manager. * gpu-manager.c, tests/gpu-manager.py: - Replace laptop specific hack to detect the need to offload rendering to the discrete card with code that opens the available drm devices and checks the connected outputs. If any outputs are connected to the Intel card, then we choose offloading. This also helps when the monitor is still connected to Intel on desktop systems with Intel + NVIDIA systems. - Preliminary work to reduce code duplication in nvidia-prime. * tests/ubuntu_drivers.py: - Do not abort if test_auto_install_system fails.	Alberto Milone	1:0.2.91	10 years ago
54	* gpu-manager.c, gpu-manager.py: * gpu-manager.c, gpu-manager.py: - Match only PCI_CLASS_DISPLAY, except for PCI_CLASS_DISPLAY_OTHER. - Re-enable outputs connected to NVIDIA discrete cards. This only affects Optimus systems (LP: #1290711). - Prevent possible buffer overflow when reading the configuration from last boot. - Clean up and make get_output() more robust (LP: #1290831).	Alberto Milone	1:0.2.90	10 years ago
53	* gpu-manager.c: * gpu-manager.c: - Take action if settings don't match the current bbswitch status (LP: #1289420).	Alberto Milone	1:0.2.89.6	10 years ago
52	* tests/run: * tests/run: - Skip gpu-manager.py on anything other than the x86 family.	Alberto Milone	1:0.2.89.5	10 years ago
51	[ Martin Pitt ] [ Martin Pitt ] * Reenable tests. * Mark the three failing tests as expected failure instead of skipping them entirely, so that we can see what they do on the buildds. [ Alberto Milone ] * tests/gpu-manager.py: - Refactor the test suite by reusing more code and reducing the overall code. - Add test case for zero length dmi product version. * share/hybrid/gpu-manager.c: - Do not try to match quirks if dmi product version has zero length (LP: #1289298).	Alberto Milone	1:0.2.89.4	10 years ago
50	* debian/rules: * debian/rules: - Temporarily disable all tests. We'll switch them back on as soon as we find out the cause of these failures. * tests/gpu-manager.py: - Do not run on anything but x86 family.	Alberto Milone	1:0.2.89.3	10 years ago
49	* tests/gpu-manager.py: * tests/gpu-manager.py: - Fix FTBFS.	Alberto Milone	1:0.2.89.2	10 years ago
48	* tests/gpu-manager.py: * tests/gpu-manager.py: - Remove leftover print that caused tests to fail in -proposed.	Alberto Milone	1:0.2.89.1	10 years ago
47	* debian/control: * debian/control: - Breaks: nvidia-prime (<< 0.6). We don't want the gpu-manager to compete with the old nvidia-prime on hybrid systems. * share/hybrid/gpu-manager.c: - Fix memory leaks and complete the different test cases. * tests/gpu-manager.py: - Add test suite for gpu-manager to reproduce different hardware/software scenarios. * UbuntuDrivers/detect.py, tests/ubuntu_drivers.py: - Enable installing graphics drivers on laptops with hybrid graphics (LP: #1126234), and on desktop systems where the BIOS doesn't disable the integrated GPU when a discrete card is available (LP: #1126234). This is now possible thanks to the gpu-manager (now enabled by default). * Replace the deprecated hybrid-detect program with gpu-manager (now enabled by default). In case of problems with the gpu-manager, it can be disabled by passing "nogpumanager" as a boot parameter.	Alberto Milone	1:0.2.89	10 years ago
