* prime-supported:
  - Check /var/lib/ubuntu-drivers-common/requires_offloading to
    know if we need to offload rendering. There's no need to do
    hardware detection again when the gpu-manager already does
    all the work.

* debian/preinst.in, debian/rules:
  - Move the lightdm configuration file from /etc to /usr/share.

* debian/control:
  - Breaks: ubuntu-drivers-common (<< 1:0.2.89).
* Add support for the new ubuntu-drivers-common. The gpu-manager
  will take care of most of the work. We only need to tell
  lightdm that we want to offload rendering, and to run the
  gpu-manager on log out.

* debian/preinst.in:
  - Do not remove the lightdm configuration file.

* prime-xconfig:
  - Format the BusID string correctly (LP: #1282796).
    The BusID string created by prime-xconfig had several problems:
    1) It was missing the bus type "PCI", as recommended by
       xorg.conf(5).
    2) Values were written in hexadecimal, as reported by lspci,
       instead of decimal, as expected by the server. (See the
       comment at the top of xf86ParsePciBusString().)
    3) The PCI domain was not specified.
    Giving the BusID string in the wrong format could cause the X
    server to fail to parse the BusID, or to parse numbers in the
    wrong base. On systems with more than one PCI domain, `lspci -n`
    output would include the domain number, which is omitted by
    default on systems with only one PCI domain. nv_get_id()
    expects the bus number to be the first field, which would not be
    correct when `lspci -n` reports the domain, as it does on
    systems with multiple domains.
    Fix these issues by always reporting the domain with `lspci -Dn`
    and using it in the BusID string, prepending "PCI:" to the
    BusID string, and printing all numeric values in decimal.

* debian/rules:
  - Fix path to lightdm configuration files.

11. By Alberto Milone on 2014-01-28

* Do not touch lightdm.conf any more on anything newer than Precise.
  90-nvidia.conf now contains only the relevant settings for PRIME
  (LP: #1267442).
* Also remove any previous lightdm.conf that nvidia-prime might
  have messed up.
* Major packaging clean-up. The variable in debian/rules and in
  templates have clearer names now.
* Clean up the old 90-nvidia.conf that we used to ship in /etc.

10. By Alberto Milone on 2014-01-10

* debian/postrm.in, debian/rules:
  - Avoid calling dpkg-architecture (LP: #1264611).
* prime-xconfig:
  - Properly format hexadecimal parameters (LP: #1252667).

9. By Alberto Milone on 2013-12-20

* debian/control:
  - Add an alternative dependency on gdm and kdm
    so that gdm or kdm users are not forced to install
    lightdm now that nvidia depends on nvidia-prime.
    This fixes only the single graphics card use case
    (hybrid graphics won't still work without lightdm)
    but it's a step in the right direction (LP: #1262068).
* debian/preinst.in:
  - Set the lightdm configuration bits only if lightdm
    is the default display manager.

8. By Alberto Milone on 2013-12-17

* debian/nvidia-prime.upstart, prime-switch:
  - Send events to start and to stop the
    nvidia-persistenced upstart job.
