Changes: - Updated the NVIDIA kernel module to ensure that all system memory allocated by it for use with GPUs or within user-space components of the NVIDIA driver stack is initialized to zero. A new NVIDIA kernel module option, InitializeSystemMemoryAllocations, allows administrators to revert to the previous behavior. - Added preliminary support for xserver 1.10. - Reorganized the NVIDIA driver's /proc file system layout to better - reflect current needs: /proc/driver/nvidia/cards/0..N has been moved to /proc/driver/nvidia/gpus/0..N/information - Added new shared library: libnvidia-ml.so. NVML provides programmatic access to static information and monitoring data for NVIDIA GPUs, as well as limited managment capabilities. It is intended for use with Tesla compute products. - Added a new X configuration option "3DVisionDisplayType" to specify the display type when NVIDIA 3D Vision is enabled with a non 3D Vision ready display. - Fixed several bugs relating to hardware-accelerated gradients, which were causing visual corruption in some of the default Ubuntu GNOME themes. - Modified colormap updates to no longer be synchronized to vblank. This allows applications to send XStoreColor and XStoreColors requests faster than the screen's refresh rate. * Install libnvidia-ml.so links. * Add libxv1 to build deps.1 -- Brandon Snider Sun, 23 Jan 2011 15:58:25 -0500 nvidia-graphics-drivers (260.19.29-0ubuntu1~xup~lucid4) lucid; urgency=low * Added support for the following GPUs: GeForce GTX 460 SE GeForce GTX 570 Quadro 5000M NVS 300 * Fixed a bug that caused some OpenGL applications to become unresponsive for up to a minute on some GPUs when changing the resolution or refresh rate. * Added support for NVIDIA 3D Vision Pro. * See the "Stereo" X configuration documentation in the README for further details. * Added a new X configuration option "3DVisionProConfigFile" to allow user provide a filename which NVIDIA X driver uses to store 3D Vision Pro configuration settings.

No changelog. -- Robert Hooker Wed, 01 Dec 2010 09:48:00 -0500 nvidia-graphics-drivers (260.19.21-0ubuntu1) natty; urgency=low * New upstream release: - Fixed a race condition in OpenGL that could cause crashes with multithreaded applications. - Fixed a bug that may cause OpenGL applications which fork to crash. - Fixed a bug in VDPAU that caused it to attempt allocation of huge blocks of system memory. This regression was introduced in the 260.* driver series. * debian/dkms.conf.in: - Apply nvidia-2.6.36-ioctl.patch when dealing with 2.6.37 kernels too. -- Alberto Milone Sun, 21 Nov 2010 15:36:34 +0100 nvidia-graphics-drivers (260.19.06-0ubuntu1) maverick; urgency=low * New upstream release: - Fixed an interaction problem with a change in X server behavior that caused slow text rendering on X.Org xserver 1.9 (LP: #629910). - Enhanced VDPAU to support interop with CUDA and OpenGL when Xinerama is active. - Fixed a bug in VDPAU that prevented temporal-spatial de-interlacing from operating when temporal de-interlacing was not also enabled. - Added support for configuring the dithering depth used when driving a flat panel with a GeForce 8 family or Quadro 4600/5600 or newer GPU. See the "Dithering Controls" in the Flat Panel page in nvidia-settings. * debian/headers, nvidia-current-dev.install{.in}: - Put the headers from 256.53 in debian/headers and install them in nvidia-current-dev as usual. Starting from the 260 series, these headers are no longer distributed with the Nvidia installer. In Natty we'll package them separately but for now we'll keep them in nvidia-current-dev. * debian/dkms/patches/nvidia-2.6.36-ioctl.patch: - Refresh patch. -- Alberto Milone Mon, 04 Oct 2010 15:02:13 +0200 nvidia-graphics-drivers (256.53-0ubuntu3) maverick; urgency=low * debian/nvidia-current.postinst{.in}: - Call dpkg-trigger with "--by-package". -- Alberto Milone Fri, 24 Sep 2010 10:45:19 +0200 nvidia-graphics-drivers (256.53-0ubuntu2) maverick; urgency=low * debian/dkms/patches/nvidia-2.6.36-ioctl.patch: - Fix malformed patch (LP: #630690). -- Alberto Milone Mon, 06 Sep 2010 12:02:08 +0200 nvidia-graphics-drivers (256.53-0ubuntu1) maverick; urgency=low [ Alberto Milone ] * New upstream release: - Fixed a bug that prevented XvMC from initializing in most cases. - Added support for xorg-server video driver ABI version 8, which will be included in the xorg-server-1.9 series of releases (LP: #616023). - Fixed a bug that caused extremely slow rendering of OpenGL applications on X screens other than screen 0 when using a compositing manager. - Fixed a regression introduced after 256.35 that caused stability problems on GPUs such as GeForce GT 240. - Fixed a slow kernel virtual address space leak observed when starting and stopping OpenGL, CUDA, or VDPAU applications. - Fixed a bug that left the system susceptible to hangs when running two or more VDPAU applications simultaneously. [ Robert Hooker ] * debian/dkms/patches/nvidia-2.6.36-ioctl.patch: - Add patch from nvnews to add compatibility with kernel 2.6.36. -- Alberto Milone Thu, 02 Sep 2010 16:39:53 +0200 nvidia-graphics-drivers (256.44-0ubuntu1) maverick; urgency=low * debian/rules: - Switch to new xsfbs variables to get the xserver ABI (LP: #616214). * debian/nvidia-current.dirs.in: - Remove duplicate line. * New upstream release: - Added Support for GeForce GTX 460. - Added Support for Quadro 4000, Quadro 5000, and Quadro 6000. - Fixed VDPAU to not print a debug error message when calling VdpVideoMixerQueryFeatureSupport with an unsupported or unknown VdpVideoMixerFeature. - Removed the requirement that in TwinView passive stereo, MetaModes must have identical viewports on each monitor. - Removed the requirement that in active stereo, all monitors must use identical modetimings. - Enhanced VDPAU to better report certain kinds of initialization error. - Fixed a regression that caused Xv to return BadAlloc errors on AGP systems when using the AGP GART driver contained in the NVIDIA driver.This fixes the problem reported in nvnews.net thread 151199. * This release still doesn't report to be compatible with the new xserver ABI but works fine if the ignoreABI option is set in xorg.conf. -- Alberto Milone Fri, 13 Aug 2010 14:28:27 +0200 nvidia-graphics-drivers (256.35-0ubuntu2) maverick; urgency=low * debian/nvidia-current-dev*, debian/control.in: - Revert my previous changes which involved adding conflicts with other dev packages and installing the headers directly in /usr/include (LP: #600397). -- Alberto Milone Fri, 09 Jul 2010 16:39:34 +0200 nvidia-graphics-drivers (256.35-0ubuntu1) maverick; urgency=low [ Alberto Milone ] * debian/nvidia-current-dev*: - Make the dev package conflict with other dev packages which provide nvidia-dev so as to make it possible to install headers directly in /usr/include. * Adapt the packaging scripts to the new NVIDIA installers. * New upstream release: - Fixed a 3D Vision Stereo bug that caused the stereo glasses to not toggle when the flat panel was not running at its native mode timings. - Fixed a bug which prevented use of high performance PowerMizer levels on systems with certain ACPI configurations. - Fixed a bug that caused non-primary Fermi GPUs to fail to initialize framebuffer memory. This caused a variety of symptoms, up to and including system hangs. - Added unofficial GLX protocol support (i.e., for GLX indirect rendering) for the following OpenGL extensions: o GL_ARB_blend_func_extended o GL_ARB_draw_buffers_blend o GL_ARB_sample_shading o GL_ARB_timer_query o GL_EXT_draw_buffers2 o GL_EXT_separate_shader_objects o GL_NV_explicit_multisample o GL_NV_transform_feedback - Fixed an interaction problem between Compiz and 'screen-scraping' VNC servers like x11vnc and vino that caused the screen to stop updating (LP: #353126). - Enhanced VDPAU to add basic support for Xinerama. VDPAU will now operate on a single physical X screen under Xinerama. See the README for more details. - Enhanced VDPAU's handling of corrupt clips of all formats on GPUs with VDPAU feature set C to be at least as good as on GPUs with VDPAU feature set B. This significantly improves various clips provided by nvnews.net user eamiller. - Fixed a bug in Xv attribute handling that caused hue, saturation, brightness and contrast values to be misapplied when using an Xv overlay adaptor. - Fixed a bug in the XvMC driver that prevented it from working on systems with AGP graphics cards. - Enhanced VDPAU to clear all VdpVideoSurfaces to black when allocated. This provides more consistent results when using a surface as a reference when no prior decode operation has written to that surface. In turn, this improves the results of decoding some corrupt streams, such as "p_only_no_play" from ffmpeg bug 1124. - Implemented new APIs to allow sharing VDPAU surfaces with OpenGL andCUDA. The OpenGL extension is GL_NV_vdpau_interop. For CUDA, please see the documentation in the CUDA toolkit for details. - Worked around a bug where the combination of a GPU with VDPAU feature set A together with specific motherboard chipsets could cause visible corruption when decoding some MPEG-2 streams. - Fixed a bug that prevented the VDPAU overlay-based presentation queue from being used more than a few hundred times per X server invocation. - Renamed the driver file libGLcore.so.VERSION to libnvidia-glcore.so.VERSION, as a small step towards reducing the filename collisions between NVIDIA's and MESA's OpenGL implementations.This driver file is used by NVIDIA's libGL.so and libglx.so, and should never be used directly by applications. - Changed the SONAME of libnvidia-glcore.so.VERSION, libnvidia-tls.so.VERSION, and libnvidia-compiler.so.VERSION to be ".so.VERSION", rather than ".so.1". These driver files are only used by other NVIDIA driver components, and are only intended to be usedby components of the matching NVIDIA driver version. - Removed the "-pkg#" suffix from the NVIDIA Linux .run files. The packages are now simply named "NVIDIA-Linux-ARCH-VERSION.run". On Linux-x86_64, a package which omits the 32-bit compatibility libraries is also available: "NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-VERSION-no-compat32.run" - Compressed the nvidia-settings, nvidia-installer and nvidia-xconfig tarballs with bzip2, rather than gzip. [ Johan Kiviniemi ] * debian/nvidia_supported: - nVidia changed the driver blob so that the old heuristic for finding the symbol with the PCI ID list failed. Implement a new heuristic by finding the symbol that matches the ID list in README closely enough. (README is missing a great number of IDs, which is why we need to grab the list from the blob in the first place). -- Alberto Milone Mon, 28 Jun 2010 11:22:03 +0000 nvidia-graphics-drivers (195.36.24-0ubuntu2) maverick; urgency=low * No change rebuild for new Xserver 1.8 ABI -- Christopher James Halse Rogers Thu, 10 Jun 2010 18:47:54 +1000 nvidia-graphics-drivers (195.36.24-0ubuntu1) maverick; urgency=low * New upstream release: - Added support for the following GPUs: o GeForce GTX 480 o GeForce GTX 470 o Tesla C2050 - Fixed a problem that caused occasional red flashes in XVideo frames (LP: #580763). - Added official support for xserver 1.8.

This was typically triggered by running Kopete while using Compiz or Beryl. -Fixed a bug in VDPAU that could cause visible corruption when decoding H.264 clips with alternating frame/field coded reference pictures, and a video surface is concurrently removed from the DPB, and re-used as the decode target, in a single decode operation. This affected all GPUs supported by VDPAU. -Fixed a bug in VDPAU that could cause visible corruption near the bottom edge of the picture when decoding VC-1 advanced profile clips whose heights are not exact multiples of 16 pixels, on G98 and MCP7x (IGP) GPUs. -Enhanced VDPAU to better handle corrupt/invalid H.264 bitstreams on G84, G86, G92, G94, G96, or GT200 GPUs. This should prevent most cases of "display preemption" that are caused by bitstream errors. -Fixed an X server crash when using the VDPAU overlay-based presentation queue and VT-switching away from the X server. -Enhanced VDPAU's detection of the GPU's video decode capabilities. -Fixed a bug in VDPAU that could cause ghosting/flashing issues when decoding H.264 clips, in certain full DPB scenarios, on G98 and MCP7x. -Fixed VDPAU to detect an attempt to destroy the VdpDevice object when other device-owned objects still exist. VDPAU now triggers "display preemption", and returns an error, when this occurs. -Enhanced VDPAU's error handling and resource management in presentation queue creation and operation.

Removed the LoadKernelModule X configuration option. - Added support for new horizontal interlaced and checkerboard passive stereo modes. - Fixed an OpenGL driver crash while running Bibble 5. - Fixed a DisplayPort interaction problem with power management suspend/resume events. - Fixed occasional X driver memory management performance problems when a composite manager is running. (LP: 294925) - Fixed a bug with VT-switching or mode-switching while using Compiz; the bug could lead to a corrupted desktop (e.g., a white screen) or in the worst case an X server crash. - Fixed a bug that could cause GPU errors in some cases while driving Quadro SDI products. - Fixed a several second hang when VT-switching while OpenGL stereo applications were running on pre-G80 Quadro GPUs. - Added support for multiple swap group members on G80 and later Quadro GPUs. - Fixed the behavior of the NV_CTRL_FRAMELOCK_SYNC_DELAY NV-CONTROL attribute on Quadro G-Sync II. - Fixed a problem with Quadro SDI where transitioning from "clone mode" to "OpenGL mode" would fail. - Fixed VDPAU to eliminate some cases of corruption when decoding H.264 video containing field-coded reference frames on G84, G86, G92, G94, G96, or GT200 GPUs. Such streams are commonly found in DVB broadcasts. - Slightly improved the performance of the VDPAU noise reduction algorithm. - Enhanced VDPAU to validate whether overlay usage is supported by the current hardware configuration, and to automatically fall back to the blit-based presentation queue if required. - Fixed error checking in VdpVideoMixerRender, to reject calls that specify more layers than the VdpMixer was created with. - Modified VDPAU's VDPAU_DEBUG code to emit a complete backtrace on all platforms, not just on 32-bit Linux. - Improved interaction between VDPAU and PowerMizer; appropriate performance levels should now be chosen for video playback of all standard resolutions on all supported GPUs. - Fixed a bug in VDPAU that sometimes caused "display preemption" when the VdpDecoderCreate function failed. - Fixed a potential segfault in the VDPAU trace library, triggered by a multi-threaded application creating a new VdpDevice in one thread, at the same time that another thread detected "display preemption". - Improved compatibility with recent Linux kernels. - OpenOffice and Skype no longer have flickering buttons on mouseover when compiz is enabled.
