[Bug 1376832] Re: gpu-manager still deletes xorg.conf

 

Happens to me too on HP Zbook 15 with (Nvidia/Intel) only Nvidia active.
Disabled intel card in bios.

Workaround:
Add "nogpumanager" to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT in /etc/default/grub and execute update-grub to disable gpu-manger.

Title:
  gpu-manager still deletes xorg.conf

Status in ubuntu-drivers-common package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  
  To reproduce:

  1. Create /etc/X11/xorg.conf
  2. Wait until there is an update for some package (I don't know which one, suspect an nvidia driver one).
  3. Reboot.

  Result: gpu-manager deletes xorg.conf.

  Expected result: gpu-manager does not delete xorg.conf.

  Despite claims of a fix, this is still happening.
