Changelog
nvidia-graphics-drivers (349.16-1) unstable; urgency=low
* New upstream short-lived branch release 349.16 (2015-04-14).
* New upstream beta 349.12 (2015-03-25).
- Added support for G-SYNC monitors when used together with non-G-SYNC
monitors. When G-SYNC is enabled, non-G-SYNC monitors will display with
tearing.
- Removed the "EnableACPIHotkeys" X configuration option. This option
has been deprecated and disabled by default since driver version 346.35.
On modern Linux systems, display change hotkey events are delivered to
the desktop environment as key press events, and the desktop environment
handles the display change by issuing requests through the X Resize and
Rotate extension (RandR).
- Added support for lossless H.264/AVC video streams to VDPAU.
- Added support for VDPAU Feature Set F to the NVIDIA VDPAU driver.
GPUs with VDPAU Feature Set F are capable of hardware-accelerated
decoding of H.265/HEVC video streams.
- Added support for the X.Org X server's "-background none" option. When
enabled, the NVIDIA driver will try to copy the framebuffer console's
contents out of /dev/fb0. If that cannot be done, then the screen is
cleared to black.
- Added support for YUV 4:2:0 compression to enable HDMI 2.0 4K@60Hz modes
when either the display or GPU is incapable of driving these modes in
RGB 4:4:4. See NoEdidHDMI2Check in the README for details.
- Fixed a bug that could cause multi-threaded applications to crash when
multiple threads used the EGL driver at the same time.
- Fixed a bug that caused Sync to VBlank to not work correctly with XVideo
applications in certain configurations.
- Fixed a bug that prevented the X driver from correctly interpreting
some X configuration options when a display device name was given
with a GPU UUID qualifier.
* Add support for OpenCL 1.2.
* Update symbols control files.
* nvidia-libopencl1: Add Provides: libopencl-1.2-1.
* Restrict watch file to releases from the 349.xx short lived branch.
