** Description changed:

  [ Impact ]
  
-  * On AMD platform with Nvidia dGPU, if the iGPU is not VGA compatible. and pci order is later than NV
-  * The system will select Nvidia as the primary GPU, which is wrong on AMD platform.
+  * On AMD platform with Nvidia dGPU, if the iGPU is not VGA compatible. and pci order is later than NV
+  * The system will select Nvidia as the primary GPU, which is wrong on AMD platform.
  
  [ Test Plan ]
  
-  * On AMD (StrixPoint or KrakanPoint) platform with Nvidia dGPU
+  * Test Ubuntu Desktop and kubuntu and Linux Mint impacted by the
+ package update
  
-  * Check the renderer by $ xrandr -display <display name>
- --listproviders
+  * The form factors need to be covered:
+    I+N Laptop
+    I+N Desktop with output connect to either I or N
+    A+N Laptop
+    A+N Laptop with output connect to either A or N
  
-  * Provider 0 should be AMD graphic
+  * Check if login page can show-up and enter password to get into
+ desktop successfully
+ 
+  * After entering desktop Xorg session
+ 
+  * Check the renderer by $ xrandr -display <display name> --listproviders
+    1. The primary GPU should be on built-in connector for laptop for laptop
+    2. The primary GPU should be the card with output for Desktop
  
  [ Where problems could occur ]
  
-  * If Nvidia dGPU is VGA compatible and the boot_vga is set, the system
- still select Nvidia as the primary GPU.
- 
-  * If the platform AMD graphic card acpi companion is not configured in
- the BIOS, the system still select Nvidia as the primary GPU.
+  * The Xorg can't find device to output
