Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users. If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested and change the tag from verification-needed-bionic to verification-done-bionic. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed-bionic. In either case, without details of your testing we will not be able to proceed. Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance for helping! N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s) fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in -proposed for a minimum of 7 days. ** Changed in: ubuntu-release-upgrader (Ubuntu Bionic) Status: New => Fix Committed ** Tags removed: verification-done ** Tags added: verification-needed verification-needed-bionic -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers-390 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1773637 Title: Distribution upgrade to 18.04: used nvidia display driver is commented out Status in nvidia-graphics-drivers-390 package in Ubuntu: Won't Fix Status in ubuntu-release-upgrader package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in ubuntu-release-upgrader source package in Bionic: Fix Committed Status in nvidia-graphics-drivers-390 source package in Cosmic: Won't Fix Status in ubuntu-release-upgrader source package in Cosmic: Fix Released Bug description: Impact ------ Users who have manually configured an xorg.conf file with nvidia enabled as a driver will be surprised to have disabled on upgrade to a new release of Ubuntu and won't have a graphical display. Test Case --------- If you don't have a system with nvidia hardware to upgrade this is a bit convoluted but still works. 1) Run do-release-upgrade (use -d if upgrading to disco) 2) Cancel the upgrade 3) Create an /etc/X11/xorg.conf file with a Device section listed in the original description using the nvidia driver. 4) cd to /tmp/ubuntu-release-upgrader-$TEMPNAME 5) run ./$target-release-name --frontend DistUpgradeViewText 6) Observe the Driver line is commented out of xorg.conf When testing the release-upgrader from -proposed you'll need to use the -p switch to get the right tarball. Additionally, you'll want to add a step 4.5 where you modify xorg_fix_proprietary.py so nvidia defaults to True instead of False (line 106) this'll simulate the nvidia driver being loaded. Regression Potential -------------------- This just changes how xorg_fix_proprietary check for nvidia being in use and it only affects people who have an /etc/X11/xorg.conf so the impact of a regression is rather small. Additionally, the logic used to determine if nvidia in use is the same logic used in the apport package hook for all xorg packages so is well tested. Original Description -------------------- I upgraded my system from 17.10 to 18.04 Bionic Beaver via do-release-upgrade. After the installation had finished, Xorg wouldn't start. I later found out that this was because the installation routine had commented out the nvidia display driver I used in the xorg.conf: Section "Device" Identifier "nvidia" # Driver "nvidia" BusID "PCI:10@0:0:0" Option "ConstrainCursor" "off" EndSection As the installtion routine backuped my xorg.conf I could verify that the line hadn't been commented out before upgrading. Removing the "#" solved the problem.
