jockey 0.9.7-0ubuntu7.10 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

jockey (0.9.7-0ubuntu7.10) precise-proposed; urgency=low

  * data/handlers/fglrx.py:
    - Show the driver as enabled when pxpress is in use.
      Thanks to Doro Wu for the patch (LP: #1196848).
    - Add handlers for -experimental-{12|13}.
    - Only -experimental-13 supports hybrid graphics.
  * data/handlers/nvidia.py:
    - Add handlers for 319/-updates 304/-updates.
    - Only 319/-updates support hybrid graphics.
    - Make sure to remove the correct nvidia-settings
      flavour.
  * data/handlers/{fglrx|nvidia}.py:
    - Add support for Hybrid Graphics (LP: #1198942):
      + Driver handlers now need to state that they support
        hybrid graphics and subclass either the
        _NvidiaDriverHybridBase class or the FglrxDriverHybrid
        class.
      + Drivers which don't claim to support hybrid graphics
        will not show up on hybrid systems.
      + If the nvidia-prime or the fglrx-pxpress packages are
        not available, the drivers won't be available on
        hybrid systems. This avoids breaking systems which
        require further configuration which only these two
        packages provide.
      + Jockey doesn't touch the xorg.conf when dealing with
        hybrid graphics (as either nvidia-prime or
        fglrx-pxpress will take care of it).
      + Hybrid Graphics is only supported on systems which
        use Raring's backported X and kernel.
  * jockey/xorg_driver.py:
    - Add supports_hybrid_graphics class attribute.
    - Add has_hybrid_graphics class attribute.
    - Add better support for faking devices and packages.
    - Ignore transitional packages.
  * jockey/oslib.py:
    - Add package_transitional() method.
    - Add package_available() method.
    - Make current_xorg_video_abi take into account
      backported packages.
    - Catch additional arguments in package_installed().
      This gives us some flexibility when using fake
      devices for testing.
    - Add some checks for raring's backported xserver.
  * tests/hybridgraphics.py:
    - Add coverage for hybrid graphics.
  * tests/oslib.py:
    - Deal with the multiple video abis that drivers may
      support.
    - Make sure that the kernel headers are available before
      failing.
  * tests/sandbox.py:
    - Report a more compliant fake X ABI.
    - Update package_installed() to match the one in oslib.py.

Binary packages built by this source

dh-modaliases: debhelper extension for scanning kernel module aliases

 dh_modaliases is useful for packages that ship third-party kernel modules,
 either in binary form, or as sources (with e. g. DKMS). It extracts the
 modules' modaliases from either the compile .ko files themselves (for packages
 which ship them in compiled form, using modinfo), or from a package file
 debian/packagename.modaliases.
 .
 This enables software which is looking for missing driver packages (such as
 Jockey or the operating system installer) to identify which package(s) will
 provide a driver for a piece of hardware, identified by its modalias.

jockey-common: user interface and desktop integration for driver management

 Jockey provides a user interface for configuring third-party drivers,
 such as the Nvidia and ATI fglrx X.org and various Wireless LAN
 kernel modules.
 .
 This package contains the common data shared between the frontends.

jockey-gtk: GNOME user interface and desktop integration for driver management

 Jockey provides a user interface for configuring third-party drivers,
 such as the Nvidia and ATI fglrx X.org and various Wireless LAN
 kernel modules.
 .
 This package contains the GNOME frontend.

jockey-kde: KDE user interface and desktop integration for driver management

 Jockey provides a user interface for configuring third-party drivers,
 such as the Nvidia and ATI fglrx X.org and various Wireless LAN
 kernel modules.
 .
 This package contains the KDE frontend.
