Current releases
------------------------
Current official release: 180.51 (x86 / x86_64)
Would be great if the package in Jaunty could be updated (although I
realise with the release imminent this is unlikely, but perhaps if it
could get pushed to jaunty-updates that'd be great).
-----------
Version: 180.51
Operating System: Linux x64 (AMD64/EM64T)
Release Date: April 21, 2009
Release Highlights
* Added support for the following GPUs:
