ubuntu-drivers-common 1:0.4.11 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

ubuntu-drivers-common (1:0.4.11) wily; urgency=medium

  * gpu-manager.c:
    - Rely on /var/log/syslog to get information about unloaded modules.
      This should minimise the current slowdown on boot (LP: #1307069).
    - Switch from intel to modesetting as the default driver on hybrid
      intel/nvidia systems because of a regression in the intel driver
      (LP: #1507676).

ubuntu-drivers-common-dbgsym: debug symbols for package ubuntu-drivers-common

 This package aggregates and abstracts Ubuntu specific logic and knowledge
 about third-party driver packages. It provides:
 .
  - a Python API for detecting driver packages for a particular piece of
    hardware or the whole system.
 .
  - an "ubuntu-drivers" command line tool to list or install driver packages
    (mostly for integration in installers).
 .
  - a PackageKit plugin for WhatProvides() for types MODALIAS and
    HARDWARE_DRIVER, to do the same queries as above through the PackageKit API
    (for using in non-distro specific GUIs). This works with aptdaemon's
    PackageKit compatibility layer (python3-aptdaemon.pkcompat) and with
    PackageKit's apt backend, but _not_ with the PackageKit aptcc backend.
 .
  - some NVidia specific support code to find the most appropriate driver
    version, as well as setting up the alternatives symlinks that the
    proprietary NVidia and FGLRX packages use.
