Changelog

nvidia-graphics-drivers (304.117-1) wheezy; urgency=medium


  * New upstream legacy 304xx branch release 304.117 (2013-12-11).
    - Added support for X.org xserver ABI 15 (xorg-server 1.15).
  * New upstream legacy 304xx branch release 304.116 (2013-11-06).
    - Fixed a security vulnerability in the microcode for microcontrollers
      that are part of NVIDIA GPUs.  This vulnerability could be exploited
      to take control of a system, and it is described in greater detail at:
      http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=2013-5987
      (Closes: #735271)
    - Improved compatibility with recent Linux kernels.
    - Updated the NVIDIA OpenGL driver to write temporary files to $TMPDIR
      if it is set, instead of unconditionally writing to /tmp.
    - Updated a fallback of writing temporary files to $HOME/.nvidia to
      use $HOME/.nv instead, as the latter path is already used for other
      NVIDIA driver related files.
  * New upstream legacy 304xx branch release 304.108 (2013-08-08).
    * Add support for Linux 3.10.

  * debian/module/debian/prep-modules: Sanitize the kernel version. Replace
