increased hardware support, bugfixes and compatibility with the new driver 180:
nvidia-graphics-drivers-177:
* Add driver 177.82 (LP: #297543):
* Added support for the following new GPUs:
o Quadro NVS 450
o Quadro FX 370 LP
o Quadro FX 5800
o Quadro FX 4800
o Quadro FX 470
o Quadro CX
* Fixed a problem on recent mobile GPUs that caused a power management resume from S3 to take 30+ seconds.
* Fixed a problem with hotkey switching on some recent mobile GPUs.
* Fixed an image corruption issue seen in FireFox 3.
* Make it conflict with driver 180
* Make it easier to add the support for new flavours in nvidia-glx-VER.preinst
* Switch to DKMS patching system (in debian/rules) so as to have different
patches for different kernel versions
nvidia-graphics-drivers-173, 96
* Make it conflict with driver 180
* Make it easier to add the support for new flavours in nvidia-glx-VER.preinst
* Switch to DKMS patching system (in debian/rules) so as to have different
patches for different kernel versions
Driver 180 will be uploaded to Jaunty (it's ready for the upload) and backported to Intrepid since 180.08 is not stable.
