Changelog

nvidia-graphics-drivers-180 (180.60-0ubuntu1) karmic; urgency=low

  * New upstream release. (180.60)
    - Fixed stability problems with some GeForce 6200/7200/7300 GPUs on
      multi-core/SMP systems.
    - Fixed VGA console restoration on some laptop GPUs.
    - Fixed a bug that caused kernel crashes when attempting to initialize
      NvAGP on Linux/x86-64 kernels built with the CONFIG_GART_IOMMU kernel
      option.
    - Fixed a bug that caused some performance levels to be disabled on
      certain GeForce 9 series notebooks.
    - Fixed an OpenGL driver crash while running Bibble 5.
  * New upstream release. (180.51)
    -  Added support for the following GPUs:
       o GeForce 9600 GSO 512
       o GeForce 9400 GT
       o GeForce GTS 250
       o GeForce GT 140
       o GeForce GT 130
    - Updated nvidia-bug-report.sh to compress its log file; running
      `nvidia-bug-report.sh` now produces "nvidia-bug-report.log.gz".
    - Addressed a problem that could lead to intermittent hangs and system
      crashes on some GeForce 9 and later GPUs.
    - Fixed an X server crash when viewing the website www.tim.it.
    - Fixed a DisplayPort interaction problem with power management
      suspend/resume events.
    - Fixed rendering corruption in the OpenGL 16-bit RGB Workstation Overlay.
    - Fixed a recent VDPAU regression that caused aborted playback >and hangs
      when decoding some H.264 clips on G84, G86, G92, G94, G96, and GT200 GPUs.
    - Fixed occasional X driver memory management performance problems when a
      composite manager is running.
    - Improved compatibility with recent Linux kernels.
    - Reduced CPU usage of nvidia-smi utility for reporting Quadro Plex
      information.
    - Fixed compatibility problem with LandMark GeoProbe.
    - Fixed an interaction problem that resulted in corruption of the internal
      flatpanel's EDID on the Fujitsu Technology Solutions Celsius H270
      notebook. Using earlier NVIDIA Linux drivers on this notebook will result
      in a corrupt EDID, persisting across reboots, that can only be corrected
      through contacting Fujitsu Technology Solutions technical support. NVIDIA
      and Fujitsu recommend that all Linux Celsius H270 notebook users use
      NVIDIA Linux graphics drivers 180.50 or later.
    - Fixed a bug that could interfere with the detection of display devices
      attached to secondary GPUs when first starting X after cold boots.
    - Fixed a problem that could result in temporary stalls when moving OpenGL
      application windows on GeForce 8 and later GPUs.
    - Fixed a bug that prevented VGA fonts from being saved/restored correctly
      on GeForce 8 and later GPUs.
  - Drop debian.binary/patches/nvidia-x86_64-180.44-2.6.30-rc2.patch.  It looks
    like 180.60 compiles against 2.6.30 without trouble.
