* 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.

nvidia-graphics-drivers (295.40-0ubuntu1) precise; urgency=low
* New upstream release:
- Added support for the following GPUs:
o GeForce GT 635M
o GeForce 610M
- SECURITY UPDATE: privilege escalation via kernel
memory access (LP: #959842).
- Fixed a bug that caused DisplayPort devices to
occasionally fail to turn back on after the system
is resumed from suspend.
- Added a ModeValidation X configuration option token,
"AllowNon3DVisionModes", to allow modes that are not
optimized for NVIDIA 3D Vision to be validated on 3D
Vision monitors.

nvidia-graphics-drivers (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).

nvidia-graphics-drivers (295.20-0ubuntu1) precise; urgency=low
* New upstream release:
- Added support for the following GPU:
o NVS 5200M
- Fixed a bug that caused black areas to appear on the
back faces of some models in Maya.
- Fixed a bug that resulted in the printing of spurious
loader error messages.
- Fixed a bug that could cause X to crash after
hotplugging displays.
- Fixed a bug which caused face selections to be
misrendered in Maya when using the paint selection
tool.
- Improved performance for interactive tools in Mudbox.
- Added support for deleting SDI audio ancillary data
packets when a video frame is dropped on a Quadro SDI
Output device. See the NV_CTRL_GVO_AUDIO_BLANKING
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.
* debian/nvidia-$(flavour).postinst{.in},
debian/nvidia-$(flavour).prerm{.in}:
- Make use of quirks from nvidia-common.

nvidia-graphics-drivers (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).

otherwise the resulting module would cause kernel
oops (LP: #607399).
- Drop non functional OBSOLETE_BY variable.
