Title: prime-xconfig can write an invalid BusID string Status in “nvidia-prime” package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in “nvidia-prime” source package in Precise: In Progress Bug description: The BusID string created by prime-xconfig could be incorrect in any of the following cases: a) Any numeric component of the bus ID is greater than 9: prime-xconfig will write a hexadecimal value, but X will parse it as decimal. b) The system has more than one PCI domain: `lspci -n` will show the PCI domain, which is normally hidden on systems with a single PCI domain. This breaks the formatting assumptions made by nv_get_id() about which fields are in which position. Besides the potential correctness issues, the generated BusID string is missing the following recommended (but optional) information: a) Bus type. According to xorg.conf(5) this should be "PCI:" b) PCI domain: omission of this field could lead to problems on systems with multiple PCI domains A patch against nvidia-prime 0.5.5 from Trusty is attached. The version on github seems to be behind that version by quite a bit.
