Bug description:
[ Impact ]
* In gnome-control-center (Settings), when user has multiple GPUs and
the main display is on a discrete GPU (for example, PC with Intel and
NVIDIA GPUs, and display is on the NVIDIA GPU), in System -> About ->
System Details page, it will show multiple identical GPUs instead of
the actual config.
[ Test Plan ]
* Use a PC with Intel + NVIDIA GPUs, display on NVIDIA GPU and gnome-
control-center in test
* Go to System -> About -> System Details
* Graphics and Graphics 1 should show correct GPU information.
[ Where problems could occur ]
* Helper used for getting GPU names could crash, or GPU information
still incorrect.
[ Original Report ]
Subject: System Details incorrectly shows multiple GPUs
My system has multiple GPUs:
00:02.0 Display controller: Intel Corporation HD Graphics 630 (rev 04)
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI]
Polaris 22 XT [Radeon RX Vega M GH] (rev c0)
40:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GP102 [GeForce GTX 1080
Ti] (rev a1)
It's an Intel Hades Canyon NUC with an external GPU in an enclosure.
But it's equally valid to have multiple different GPUs in one desktop
computer.
What happens
^^^^^^^^^^^^
(see screenshot)
In GNOME Control Center, the System Details overlay lists them as:
--------------------------
Graphics
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti
Graphics 1
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti
Graphics 2
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti
--------------------------
Expected outcome
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
I would expect each GPU to be displayed correctly.
--------------------------
Graphics 1
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti
Graphics 2
Intel HD Graphics 630
Graphics 3
AMD ATI Radeon RX Vega M GH
