nvidia-graphics-drivers-470 470.63.01-0ubuntu0.20.04.1 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

nvidia-graphics-drivers-470 (470.63.01-0ubuntu0.20.04.1) focal; urgency=medium

  * New upstream release (LP: #1939673):
    - Added support for the following GPUs:
        NVIDIA RTX A2000
    - Fixed a Vulkan performance regression that affected rFactor2.
  * debian/nvidia_supported,
    debian/rules:
    - Use the json database file to generate the modaliases.
    - Fix aliases generation.
      We were not matching some of the aliases because of some missing
      zeroes in the subdevice and subvendor ids.
  * debian/pm-aliases-gen:
    - Fix aliases generation for runtimepm.
      We were not matching some of the aliases because of some missing
      zeroes in the subdevice and subvendor ids.
