Changelog
jockey (0.9.7-0ubuntu7.13) precise-proposed; urgency=low
* jockey/xorg_driver.py, tests/hybridgraphics.py:
- Add support for systems with two or more AMD GPUs.
This is very useful now that AMD's APUs have been
released (LP: #1272311).
- Adjust the tests so that they no longer fail when
dealing with systems with multiple AMD GPUs (now
dealt with by the fglrx-pxpress package).

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.

jockey (0.9.7-0ubuntu7.9) precise-proposed; urgency=low
* jockey/kerneldetection.py:
- Catch KeyError in get_linux_metapackage() (LP: #1123107).
Sometimes the "Source" key is not available.
* tests/kerneldetection.py:
- Add two tests to make sure that get_linux_metapackage()
doesn't raise a KeyError when dealing with packages
without a "Source" field and that the function doesn't
stop if one or two packages don't have the said field.

ubuntu-drivers-common package.
* jockey/oslib.py:
- Use kerneldetection.KernelDetection() to get the
linux metapackage (LP: #1123107).
