Install Focal on HP EliteOne 800 G6 All-in-One (202008-28167). Enable focal-proposed channel, install nvidia with "sudo ubuntu-drivers install nvidia" then reboot system. Check system is in on-demand with "prime- select query". Since this machine has all-in-one in chassis type, only enabled off-load mode and disabled RTD3. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1946476 Title: New on-demand default causes RTD3 never to be enabled To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/oem-priority/+bug/1946476/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Install Focal on Dell notebook Precision 7750 (202004-27817). Enable focal-proposed channel, install nvidia with "sudo ubuntu-drivers install nvidia" then reboot system. Check system is in on-demand with "prime- select query".

Hello Alberto, or anyone else affected, Accepted nvidia-prime into focal-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia- prime/0.8.16~0.20.04.2 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository. Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how to enable and use -proposed. 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, what testing has been performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed- focal to verification-done-focal. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification- failed-focal. 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: nvidia-prime (Ubuntu Focal) Status: Incomplete => Fix Committed ** Tags added: verification-needed verification-needed-focal -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1946476 Title: New on-demand default causes RTD3 never to be enabled To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/oem-priority/+bug/1946476/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1946476] Re: New on-demand default causes RTD3 never to be enabled
Thanks for uploading the fix for this bug report to -proposed. However, when reviewing the package in -proposed and the details of this bug report I noticed that the bug description is missing information required for the SRU process. You can find full details at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates#Procedure but essentially this bug is missing some of the following: a statement of impact, a test case and details regarding where problems may occur.
