nvidia-graphics-drivers-updates (304.88-0ubuntu0.1) quantal-security; urgency=low
* SECURITY UPDATE: ARGB Cursor Buffer Overflow in "NoScanout" Mode
- CVE-2013-0131
* New upstream release
- Fixed CVE-2013-0131:
NVIDIA UNIX GPU Driver ARGB Cursor Buffer Overflow in
"NoScanout" Mode. This buffer overflow, which occurred
when an X client installed a large ARGB cursor on an
X server running in NoScanout mode, could cause a denial
of service (e.g., an X server segmentation fault), or
could be exploited to achieve arbitrary code execution.
[ Alberto Milone ]
* debian/substvars:
- Add support for xorg-video-abi-14.
- Drop versioned dependency on xserver-xorg-core.

* debian/dkms.conf.in,
make-use-of-the-new-uapi-framework.patch,
replace-VM_RESERVED-with-VM_DONTEXPAND-and-VM_DONTDU.patch:
- Add support for Linux 3.7 (LP: #1075937).
* New upstream release:
- Fixed a bug that caused the EIZO FlexScan SX2762W
monitor to remain blank when connected via
DisplayPort.
- Updated nvidia-settings to save and restore
per-monitor color correction settings when RandR
1.2 or later is available.
- Fixed a bug that caused too many display devices
to appear in the X Screen page of nvidia-settings
when SLI is enabled.
- Fixed a bug that caused applications to stop
rendering or the X server to hang in Xinerama
configurations when windows were moved, resized,
mapped, or unmapped.
- Fixed a bug that caused poor OpenGL performance
on GeForce 6 and 7 PCI cards.
- Fixed a bug in nvidia-settings that made it report
the status of ECC configuration incorrectly.
- Fixed a bug that caused the X server to crash if a
display was put into DPMS off mode and subsequently
reenabled while screen transformations are in use.
- Fixed a bug that caused the X Resize and Rotate
extension to be enabled when Xinerama is enabled.
These two X extensions are incompatible and having
them both enabled can confuse window managers such
as KDE's kwin. RandR is now correctly disabled when
Xinerama is enabled.
- Fixed a bug causing OpenGL stereo applications to
not work properly when using passive stereo modes 5
through 9 on Quadro Fermi and newer GPUs.
- Added support for the "Backlight" RandR output
property for configuring the brightness of some
notebook internal panels.
- Fixed a bug that prevented the Ubuntu Unity launcher
panel from unhiding (LP:# 1057000).
- Fixed a bug that caused incorrect input
transformation after resizing an NVIDIA X screen
with xserver ABI 12 (xorg-server 1.12) or newer.
- Fixed a bug that caused GLX to leak memory when
Xinerama is enabled.
- Fixed a regression in backlight control functionality
on some notebook configurations.
- Fixed a performance issue with recent Linux kernels
when allocating and freeing system memory.
- Fixed a bug that sometimes prevented the display
device / X screen selection menu from being displayed
in nvidia-settings.
- Fixed a bug that prevented X driver gamma
manipulation from working after a VT-switch on some
configurations.
- Added the option --output-file to nvidia-bug-report.sh
to allow specifying a custom filename for the log file.
- Fixed a hang when using OpenGL programs with some SLI
Mosaic configurations on pre-Fermi GPUs.
- Added sections to the Supported NVIDIA GPU Products
list for NVS, Tesla, and VGX products.
- Added support for the following GPUs:
o VGX K1
o VGX K2
o Tesla K20c
o Tesla K20m

nvidia-graphics-drivers-updates (304.32-0ubuntu1) quantal; urgency=low
* debian/control.in, debian/rules:
- Switch from cdbs to debhelper.
* New upstream release:
- Fixed security issue that allowed an exploit to
use NVIDIA UNIX device files to map and program
registers to redirect the VGA window. Through the
VGA window, the exploit could access any region of
physical system memory. This arbitrary memory
access could then be further exploited, for
example, to escalate user privileges (LP: #1033452).
- Added support for xserver ABI 13 (xorg-server 1.13).
- Fixed a bug that caused RRSetOutputPrimary requests
to incorrectly generate BadValue errors when
setting the primary output to None. This caused
gnome-settings-daemon to crash after changing the
screen configuration in response to a display
hotplug or the display change hot-key being pressed.
- Fixed a problem where RENDER Glyphs operations
would exhibit severe performance issues in certain
cases, such as when used with gradients by Cairo
and Chromium.
- Fixed a bug that caused X to hang when resuming
certain DisplayPort display devices (such as Apple
brand mini-DisplayPort to dual-link DVI adapters)
from power-saving mode.
- Added support for the following GPU: Tesla K10
- Fixed a bug that caused an X screen to be extended
to Quadro SDI Output devices by default. An X
screen will still use an SDI Output device if it
is the only display device available. To use a SDI
Output device on an X screen with other display
devices available, include the SDI Output device
with either the "UseDisplayDevice" or "MetaMode"
X configuration options.
- Updated X11 modeline validation such that modes
not defined in a display device's EDID are
discarded if the EDID 1.3 "GTF Supported" flag is
unset or if the EDID 1.4 "Continuous Frequency"
flag is unset. The new "AllowNonEdidModes" token
for the ModeValidation X configuration option can
be used to disable this new check.
- Fixed a bug, introduced in the 295.xx release
series, with EDID detection on some laptop
internal panels. This bug caused the laptop
internal panel to show six small copies of the
desktop.
- Added support for FXAA, Fast Approximate
Anti-Aliasing.

o GeForce GTX 660M
o GeForce GTX 670M

o GeForce GTX 560 SE
o GeForce GT 415
o GeForce GTX 460 v2
o NVS 5400M
o NVS 310
o Quadro 410
- Made nvidiaXineramaInfoOrder consistent with the
RRSetOutputPrimary and RRGetOutputPrimary RandR
requests: changes to either nvidiaXineramaInfoOrder
or RandR OutputPrimary will be reflected in the
other.
- Fixed an interaction problem between RandR 1.2,
ConstrainCursor, and panning that prevented panning
from working properly.
- Fixed a bug that caused RandR RRNotify_CrtcChange
events to not be generated when switching between
MetaModes with the same total size but different
layout of display devices. This bug caused some
window managers to not update their layouts in
response to switching same-sized MetaModes.
- Added support for desktop panning when rotation,
reflection, or transformation is applied to a
display device (either through RandR or through
the MetaMode syntax); panning would previously be
ignored in that case.
- Added an "EDID" property to RandR 1.2 outputs.
This property contains the binary contents of the
connected monitor's extended display identification
data, which allows applications such as the GNOME
display properties dialog to query information about
it.
- Fixed a bug that caused audio over HDMI to not work
on some GPUs after querying the RandR configuration
(e.g., `xrandr -q`).
- Added the "nvidiaXineramaInfo" X configuration
option to report the layout of multiple display
devices within an X screen. This is enabled by
default. When disabled on X servers with RandR
1.2 support, the NVIDIA X driver will report one
screen-sized region. When disabled on X servers
without RandR 1.2 support, no Xinerama information
will be reported. For backwards compatibility, the
"NoTwinViewXineramaInfo" option disables
nvidiaXineramaInfo.
- Added the "nvidiaXineramaInfoOrder" X configuration
option as a replacement for
"TwinViewXineramaInfoOrder". For backwards
compatibility, "TwinViewXineramaInfoOrder" is kept
as a synonym for "nvidiaXineramaInfoOrder".
- Added the "nvidiaXineramaInfoOverride" X
configuration option as a replacement for
"TwinViewXineramaInfoOverride". For backwards
compatibility, "TwinViewXineramaInfoOverride" is
kept as a synonym for "nvidiaXineramaInfoOverride".
- Fixed a bug that prevented the use of some SLI Mosaic
topologies.
- Added the "MetaModeOrientation" X configuration
option as a replacement for "TwinViewOrientation".
"TwinViewOrientation" is kept as a synonym for
"MetaModeOrientation", for backwards compatibility.
- Disabled the use of certain OpenGL optimizations
with Autodesk Maya and Mudbox, due to conflicts
between these applications and the optimizations.
Some performance loss in Autodesk Maya and Mudbox
is possible, as a result.
- Fixed a behavior issue where redundant DPMS state
transitions were leading to unexpected screen
blanking on DisplayPort displays.

nvidia-graphics-drivers-updates (295.33-0ubuntu1) precise; urgency=low
* New upstream release:
- Added support for the following GPUs:
o GeForce GTX 680
o GeForce GT 630M
o GeForce GT 620
- Fixed a VDPAU bug where decoding some H.264 streams
would cause hardware errors on lower-end products,
resulting in corruption and poor performance.
- Fixed a bug that caused DisplayPort audio to stop
working after monitors are hotplugged on GeForce GT
520.
- Improved compatibility with recent Linux kernels.
- Fixed a behavior change that prevented
ConnectedMonitor from being usable with DisplayPort
connectors.
- Marked the GVO Clone mode NV-CONTROL attributes:
NV_CTRL_GVO_DISPLAY_X_SCREEN
NV_CTRL_GVO_X_SCREEN_PAN_X
NV_CTRL_GVO_X_SCREEN_PAN_Y
as deprecated. They will be removed in a future
release. To display an X screen over GVO, it is
recommended to use GVO with MetaModes, instead.
- Fixed a bug that caused DisplayPort devices to not
be listed in Xorg.*.log.
- Added support for 3D Vision ready displays that
have a NVIDIA 3D Vision infrared emitter built
inside the panel itself.
- Fixed a bug that caused OpenGL applications to
crash with some libc versions, such as eglibc 2.15
(LP: #929384).
- Fixed a bug that caused HDMI audio to stop working
on AppleTV devices when an X server was started.
* debian/nvidia-$flavour.postrm{.in}:
- Make sure to remove the blacklist for hybrid
graphics and to rebuild the initramfs (LP: #958848).

attribute in NVCtrl.h for details. This option can be
set via the GvoAudioBlanking attribute in
nvidia-settings.
* debian/rules:
- Make sure that nouveau is blacklisted even when nvidia
is disabled. This is necessary in order to get hybrid
graphics to work.

nvidia-graphics-drivers-updates (290.10-0ubuntu1) precise; urgency=low
* New upstream release:
- Fixed a bug that would cause OpenGL applications to
crash when run with recent releases of glibc such as
glibc 2.14.90.
- Improved the performance of FBO bind operations when
using Xinerama by ~30% in some cases.
- Fixed a bug that could cause stereo corruption when
driving a stereo display and a non-stereo display
from the same GPU.
- Fixed a bug that could cause display devices on a
secondary GPU to get swapped between X screens when
restarting the X server.
- Fixed a bug that could result in line flickering in
full-scene anti- aliasing contexts.
- Fixed a bug that caused the physical dimensions of
rotated monitors to be reported incorrectly.
- Add support for the pre-VBO DrawArrays command in
the server-side GLX driver module. The NVIDIA
client-side GLX implementation never sends this
command, but the server needs to support it for
compatibility with other GLX client implementations.
- Fixed a regression that caused blank/white windows
when exhausting video memory on GeForce 6 and 7
series GPUs while using composited desktops.
- Fixed a bug that caused a crash when glDrawArrays
was used with a non-VBO vertex attribute array to
draw on a Xinerama screen other than screen 0 using
an indirect GLX context.
* debian/nvidia-$flavour.prerm.in:
- Use the right path to remove the alternative for the
other architecture (LP: #915461).

- Make sure that the module alias is always correct and
uses underscores instead of hyphens (LP: #855396).
- Make the grub-gfxpayload file a template and blacklist
all Nvidia cards so that Grub doesn't set a framebuffer
which prevents recovery mode from working (LP: #854967).
- Make it possible to add card ids to the modaliases by
adding ids in debian/additional_card_ids.
