Version: 304.84-0ubuntu1~precise~xup1 2013-03-07 05:08:28 UTC

 nvidia-graphics-drivers (304.84-0ubuntu1~precise~xup1) precise; urgency=low
 .
   * Fixed a bug that could lead to rendering corruption after an X server
     generation (i.e., leaving an X server running after all of its clients
     have exited).
   * Removed a spurious dependency on libpangox from the nvidia-settings
     binary shipped as part of the driver package.
   * Fixed a bug that could cause the X server to crash when performing an
     RandR 1.0 rotation (e.g., `xrandr --orientation left`) after unplugging
     the last connected monitor.
   * Fixed a bug that caused the nvidia-xconfig(1) man page to be blank.
   * Added support for X.org xserver ABI 14 (xorg-server 1.14).
   * Fixed font rendering performance and corruption problems on X servers
     with backported support for the new glyph cache functionality added
     to Pixman 0.27.
   * Fixed a potential X server crash during initialization, when a graphics
     card with a TV connector has no TV connected.
   * Added a new X configuration option, "UseHotplugEvents", to allow the
     suppression of RandR events when adding or removing non-DisplayPort
     displays. See the "X Config Options" appendix of the README for details.

Version: 304.64-0ubuntu1~precise~xup1 2012-11-07 04:08:29 UTC

 nvidia-graphics-drivers (304.64-0ubuntu1~precise~xup1) precise; urgency=low
 .
   * Added support for the following GPUs:
      VGX K1
      VGX K2
   * Added a missing 32-bit compatibility library for libnvidia-opencl.so to
     the 64-bit Linux installer package.
   * Fixed a regression in backlight control functionality on some notebook
     configurations.
   * Fixed a performance issue with recent Linux kernels when allocating and
     freeing system memory.
   * Fixed a bug that sometimes prevented the display device / X screen
     selection menu from being displayed in nvidia-settings.
   * Fixed a bug that prevented X driver gamma manipulation from working after
     a VT-switch on some configurations.
   * Added the option "--output-file" to nvidia-bug-report.sh to allow
     specifying a custom filename for the log file.
   * Fixed a hang when using OpenGL programs with some SLI Mosaic configurations
     on pre-Fermi GPUs.
   * Added sections to the "Supported NVIDIA GPU Products" list for NVS, Tesla,
     and VGX products.

Version: 304.60-0ubuntu1~precise~xup2 2012-10-19 00:08:16 UTC

 nvidia-graphics-drivers (304.60-0ubuntu1~precise~xup2) precise; urgency=low
 .
   * Fixed a bug that caused the X server to crash if a display was put into DPMS off mode
     and subsequently reenabled while screen transformations are in use.
   * Fixed a bug that caused the X Resize and Rotate extension to be enabled when Xinerama is
     enabled. These two X extensions are incompatible and having them both enabled can confuse
     window managers such as KDE's kwin. RandR is now correctly disabled when Xinerama is enabled.
   * Fixed a bug causing OpenGL stereo applications to not work properly when using
     passive stereo modes 5 through 9 on Quadro Fermi and newer GPUs.
   * Updated nvidia-settings to report Dedicated GPU Memory (i.e., the memory dedicated
     exclusively to the GPU) and Total GPU Memory (i.e., Dedicated GPU Memory plus any
     TurboCache(TM)-accessible system memory) separately on the GPU information page.
   * Added reporting of the current utilization of Dedicated GPU Memory to the GPU
     information page of nvidia-settings.
   * Added support for the "Backlight" RandR output property for configuring the
     brightness of some notebook internal panels.
   * Fixed a bug that prevented the Ubuntu Unity launcher panel from unhiding:
     https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/1057000
   * Fixed a bug that caused nvidia-installer to sometimes attempt to write a log
     file in a nonexistent directory.
   * Fixed a bug that caused incorrect input transformation after resizing an NVIDIA X
     screen with xserver ABI 12 (xorg-server 1.12) or newer.
   * Fixed a bug that caused GLX to leak memory when Xinerama is enabled.
