  <summary>Recommended update for suse-prime</summary>
  <description>This update for suse-prime fixes the following issues:

Update from version 0.7.7 to version 0.7.14

- Avoid endless loop when nvidia modules cannot be unloaded. (bsc#1173632)
- Fixes *user_logout_waiter* for gdm autologin.
- Prevents intermittent 1s - 1.5s freezes on Turing GPU's in nvidia mode.
- Improved documentation:

* fixed requirements for DynamicPowerManagement to power off NVIDIA GPU (Turing GPU or later is needed!)
   * Better explain power-off/powersave option of NVIDIA GPU
   * Improved documentation about the requirements for NVIDIA's PRIME render offload support; 
     it needs Xserver of Leap 15.2 or later
   * Fixed syntax in command
- Use full path in invoking prime-select
- Blacklist *ipmi_msghandler*, *ipmi_devintf* kernel modules

Make sure these kernel modules are not loaded. Otherwise it may not be possible to turn off NVIDIA GPU.
