This feature is supported in X.Org xserver 1.16 and higher when running on Linux 3.9 or higher with CONFIG_DRM enabled. Updated nvidia-installer to install a file in the system's directory, when a sufficiently new X server is detected, to cause the X server to load the 'nvidia' X driver automatically if it is started after the NVIDIA kernel module is loaded.

X Config Options' in the README for more details. This option can be used to disallow use of GLX protocol. To re-enable support for indirect GLX on such servers, use the +iglx option.Īdded the 'AllowIndirectGLXProtocol' X config option. Note that future X.Org server releases may make the -iglx option the default.

Implemented support for disabling indirect GLX context creation using the -iglx option available on X.Org server release 1.16 and newer. Improved compatibility with recent Linux kernels. This allows the kernel module to honor any configuration directives that apply to it in /etc/modprobe.d when it is loaded.įixed a bug that allowed console messages from the Linux kernel to be drawn over the user interface of nvidia-installer.Īdded support for X.Org xserver ABI 19 (xorg-server 1.17). Updated nvidia-installer to use modprobe(8) when leaving the NVIDIA kernel module loaded after installation, instead of insmod(8) or libkmod. The libvdpau_nvidia vendor library is still included, so users who wish to use VDPAU with newer hardware that still works with release 304 drivers may install libvdpau from packages provided by the OS vendor where available. VDPAU is not supported on the legacy hardware supported on the release 304 legacy driver branch. Removed libvdpau and libvdpau_trace from the NVIDIA driver package.
