Public bug reported:
[ Impact ]
* On HP platform with AMD integrated and NVIDIA discrete GPUs, system will
select X11. This may make AMD integrated GPU not working correctly. The problem
can be mitigated when using Wayland. The OEM team has adopted this solution to
prefer Wayland on affected AMD+NVIDIA platforms and proposes this SRU.
[ Test Plan ]
* On a listed HP AMD+NVIDIA system, install the update and reboot. Confirm
Wayland is selected (`echo $XDG_SESSION_TYPE` returns wayland).
* On other systems, confirm that display server selection is unchanged.
[ Where problems could occur ]
* If the rules match too broadly, Wayland may be selected on unsupported
hardware.
* If the rules miss affected platforms, the bug will persist. Display server
selection logic could regress on hybrid graphics systems.
[ Other Info ]
* (LP: #2124220) [SRU] Prefer Wayland on OEM AMD+NVIDIA platforms
