Which mean the Xorg doesn't load dri driver correctly. [Test Plan] * install nvidia-390 on nvidia-390 supported system. * prime-select on-demand * reboot * glxinfo * after applying this patch, it will fall back to "ON" mode after reboot. * install nvidia-450 on nvidia-450 supported system. * prime-select on-demand * <CHECK THAT ON-DEMAND HAS STUCK> [Where problems could occur] * Since nvidia-390 doesn't support on-demand mode (RTD3 either). If a user stays in on-demand mode with 390 without problem, the after upgrading u-d-c and reboot. The mode will fall back to "ON" mode. * From my point of view, it's fine because nvidia-390 doesn't support RTD3. Thus, the nvidia will always stay in "Active" stage no matter which mode it is. * While there is no way to inform the user about this change, changing to the only supported default will avoid breaking GLX. --- The regression from https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu- drivers-common/+bug/1942789. It impacts Jammy and Impish so far. [Steps to reproduce] 1. Find a GPU supports nvidia-390 2. ubuntu-drivers install nvidia:390 3. prime-select on-demand 4. glxinfo [Expected result] Shows intel or nvidia drives monitor [Actual result] Error: couldn't find RGB GLX visual or fbconfig Since we are all agree "on-demand" mode as default mode. Pre-talk with Alberto, on-demand doesn't support with nvidia-390 (no matter RTD3). We could consider to make it as performance mode and leave a note on nvidia-settings. I'll prepare some test packages.
