This bug was fixed in the package nvidia-graphics-drivers-180 -
180.44-0ubuntu1
---------------
nvidia-graphics-drivers-180 (180.44-0ubuntu1) jaunty; urgency=low
* New upstream release (LP: #348852).
- Added support for the following GPUs:
o Quadro FX 3800
o Quadro FX 1800
o Quadro FX 580
o Quadro FX 380
o Quadro NVS 295
o GeForce GT 120
o GeForce G100
- Fixed a problem that could cause Xid errors and display corruption
in certain cases when OpenGL is used to render to redirected windows,
for example when Java2D is used with the -Dsun.java2d.opengl=true option.
- Updated glGetStringi(GL_EXTENSIONS, i) to no longer return NULL in
OpenGL 3.0 preview contexts.
- Fixed OpenGL crashes while running KDE4's Plasma.
- Fixed OpenGL crashes when using a large number of texture objects.
- Fixed the timestamp reporting in the GL_NV_present_video extension
on SDI II with Quadro FX 4800 and 5800.
- Improved power management support on some systems, such as
Hewlett-Packard xw4600 workstations.
- Fixed a problem that caused the screen to flicker momentarily when
OpenGL applications exit unexpectedly on GeForce 6 and 7 series GPUs.
- Fixed an X server crash when an X client attempts to draw trapezoids
and RenderAccel is disabled.
- Improved recovery from certain types of errors.
- Fixed a bug that caused Autodesk Maya to freeze when overlays are
enabled.
- Fixed an interaction problem between OpenGL and memory tracking
libraries such as MicroQuill SmartHeap.
- Added support for RG renderbuffers in OpenGL 3.0.
- Added support for OpenGL 3.0 floating-point depth buffers.
- Fixed a problem that caused Valgrind to crash when tracing a program
that uses OpenGL.
- Updated VDPAU to support VC-1/WMV acceleration on all GPUs supported
by VDPAU; see the README for details.
- Fixed VDPAU corruption on some H.264 clips.
- Updated VDPAU documentation in the README and in vdpau.h, in
particular regarding how to use the deinterlacing algorithms in the
VdpVideoMixer object. Explicitly documented "half rate" deinterlacing,
which should allow the advanced algorithms to run on more low-end
systems.
- Implemented a "skip chroma deinterlace" option in VDPAU, which should
allow the advanced deinterlacing algorithms to run on more low-end
systems. See vdpau.h.
- Fixed VDPAU VC-1 decoding on 64-bit platforms.
- Updated the VDPAU wrapper library to print dlerror() messages when
driver loading problems occur.
- Improved VDPAU's handling of some corrupt H.264 streams, and some
corrupt/invalid MPEG streams on some GPUs.
- Fixed VDPAU to correctly handle WMV "range reduction" on some GPUs.
A minor backwards-compatible API change was made for this; see
vdpau.h's documentation for structure field VdpPictureInfoVC1.rangered.
- Fixed a problem that caused surfaces to be marked as visible too early
when the blit presentation queue is in use.
- Fixed VDPAU to prevent some cases of "display preemption" in the face
of missing H.264 reference frames on some GPUs.
- Fixed corruption decoding H.264 clips with pictures where
pic_order_cnt_type implies log2_max_pic_order_cnt_lsb_minus4 is not
used, on G84, G86, G92, G94, G96, GT200 GPUs.
- Update vdpau.h to document exact requirements for VdpDecoderRender
bitstream data content.
- Fix VDPAU error handling in some unusual low memory situations.
- Fix hang in VDPAU in some cases of output mode timing changes.
* debian/nvidia-glx-$VER-preinst:
- Look for diversions in a more accurate way with grep.
* debian/nvidia-glx-$VER-dev.preinst.in:
- Make sure that diversions on /usr/lib/libGL.so are only removed
and not added (LP: #335621).
* debian/nvidia-glx-$VER-dev.links.in:
- Do not create a symlink to /usr/lib/libGL.so.#VERSION# in
/usr/lib/libGL.so
* debian/nvidia-glx-$VER.postrm.in, debian/nvidia-glx-$VER-dev.postrm.in:
- pass --ignore-fail-on-non-empty to rmdir
* debian/nvidia-glx-$VER-dev.preinst.in:
- If /usr/lib/libGL.so is a symlink and already exists then do not
create a new one, otherwise create a symlink to /usr/lib/libGL.so.$PKGVER
