I have updated the NVIDIA driver 177.67 (still a beta) in Intrepid (a special thanks to Timo Aaltonen who sponsored the upload).
If you still have 2D performance issues, you can have a look at this post (a special thanks to nullack for suggesting this link).
NOTE: this driver won’t be available on Hardy until a final release of the driver is available.
Ciao Alberto.
Typing from the latest Intrpid (Aug 22) and when trying to install the nVidia drivers on a fresh installation it says that my kernel is not compatible with envy. (GeForce 8400m GT)
please, alberto, we need the FGLRX 8.8 drivers right now. You should stop focusing that much on Nvidia drivers.
Anyway, youve always did a great job, but we need more updates.
Thx Alberto for all the great job you have done !
The 177.13 drivers are out and stable; why not make them available for Hardy since they introduce support for GTX 260 and 280? Owners of such cards are otherwise left out in the cold. Since Hardy is supposed to be LTS it would be important to give support to it ASAP. It should have priority to developing Intrepid.
Hi,
with 177.80 drivers finally out, are you going to make available it trough EnvyNG to Hardy ?
Hoping so.
Thanks !
I’m waiting for the 177 on hardy as well..!
Thanks
