Changelog

ubuntu-drivers-common (1:0.7.6) eoan; urgency=medium

  [ Alberto Milone ]
  * gpu-manager.c:
    - Drop prime_is_action_on() (now that it isn't on/off any more)
      and update the description.
  * UbuntuDrivers/detect.py,
    UbuntuDrivers/kerneldetection.py,
    tests/ubuntu_drivers.py,
    ubuntu-drivers:
    - Provide DKMS fallback for the "install --gpgpu" case
      when no linux-modules-nvidia are available for the driver
      and for a specific kernel (LP: #1843796).
      We have new tests to cover this scenario now.
    - Show provider of kernel modules in list --gpgpu
    - Fix linux metapackage detection.
      This was meant to be driven by the latest kernel version
      But it was only partially implemented.
      Complete the implementation and update the relevant tests.

  [ Daniel Dadap ]
  * gpu-manager.c:
    - Enable power management in NVIDIA on-demand mode:
      The NVIDIA driver can suspend the GPU when it's being used as a
      PRIME render offload source and it isn't actively being used.
      disable_power_management() sets the NVIDIA GPU's power/control
      mode to "on", which prevents the GPU from suspending when it
      might otherwise be possible to do so.
    - Increase string storage on stack for path names. This fixes
      the warnings that gcc emits when building up path names.
