** Description changed: I have upgraded to 8.10 yesterday in the hope that the new Nvidia drivers would allow me to pass audio over the HDMI link of my laptop (HP compaq 8510w with nvidia Quadro FX570 graphics). Unfortunately HDMI seems to have stopped working at all with this driver. When I enter nvidia-settings my Samsung television used to be detected as DFP-2 with "Connection link" Dual. Now it is detected as DFP-1 (Connection link: Single) and DFP-2 (Connection link: Dual). Enabeling one of them has no effect on the television (it keeps reporting "No signal"). I have seen that this bug has also been reported on the nvidia forums: http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=120102 but since 177.80 is the recommended driver for nvidia cards in 8.10 I thought this might be interesting information here as well. I hope this can be fixed, at the moment I regret upgrading before the release (but well, if nobody tests this stuff I guess the release would have these problems). Version of ubuntu: 8.10 Version of nvidia-glx: 177.80-0ubuntu2 Version of nvidia-settings: 177.78-0ubuntu2 System: HP Compaq 8510w ps. I have also tried the nvidia-settings tool version 177.80 compiled from source, that didn't help, so I assume that it is really a problem in the drivers. + + [lspci] + 00:00.0 Host bridge [0600]: Intel Corporation Mobile PM965/GM965/GL960 Memory Controller Hub [8086:2a00] (rev 0c) + Subsystem: Hewlett-Packard Company Device [103c:30c5] + 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: nVidia Corporation Quadro FX 570M [10de:040c] (rev a1) + Subsystem: Hewlett-Packard Company Device [103c:30c5]
