Additional information
  • Added support for the following GPU:
      GeForce 945A
      Quadro M6000 24GB
  • Added a legacy, non-GLVND libGL.so GLX client library to the NVIDIA Linux driver installer package, and the ability to select between a GLVND or non-GLVND GLX client library at installation time. This allows users to install the legacy non-GLVND GLX client library in order to work around compatibility issues which may arise due to GLX applications which depend upon behaviors of the NVIDIA GLX client driver which are not defined by the Linux OpenGL ABI version 1.0.

    By default, nvidia-installer will install the legacy, non-GLVND GLX client libraries. The --glvnd-glx-client command line option can be used to override the default, and install the GLVND GLX client libraries instead. Please contact the vendors of any applications that are not compatible with GLVND to ensure that their applications be updated for compatibility with GLVND.

    The presence of multiple GLX client libraries in the package has implications for repackagers of the NVIDIA driver; see the libGL.so entry in the "Installed Components" chapter of the README for details.

  • The OpenGL Vendor-Neutral Driver (GLVND) infrastructure is now included and supported by the NVIDIA GLX and OpenGL drivers.  This should not cause any visible changes in behavior for end users, but some internal driver component libraries have been renamed and/or moved as a result. These changes may affect scripts that rely on the presence of NVIDIA OpenGL driver components other than those specified in the Linux OpenGL ABI version 1.0, maintainers of alternative NVIDIA driver installation packages, and applications which rely on the presence of any non- OpenGL/GLX symbols in the libGL.so.1 library and its dependencies in any way.

    Please see:

    For more information on the GLVND project.

    The Linux OpenGL ABI version 1.0 specification is available at:

    https://www.opengl.org/registry/ABI

  • Updated nvidia-installer to run ldconfig(8) and depmod(8) after uninstalling an existing driver, instead of only running these two commands when installing a new driver.
  • Removed the VDPAU wrapper and trace libraries libvdpau.so.1 and libvdpau_trace.so.1 from the driver package.  These libraries may be available via your distribution's package management system, or can be compiled from the sources available at:

    http://people.freedesktop.org/~aplattner/vdpau/

    Please see

    for more information.

  • Fixed a bug in the EGL driver where a mutex was unlocked more than once.  This triggers undefined behavior, and in particular, if lock elision is enabled in glibc, may result in a segmentation fault.
