NVIDIA Releases Two OSS Driver Updates

We're still working on finding out more details on NVIDIA's open-source strategy, but in minor open-source news, there are two updates now available for the xf86-video-nv (a.k.a. "nv") driver. The xf86-video-nv 2.1.7 update is for those using X.Org 7.2 or later, while xf86-video-nv 2.0.3 is for pre-X11R72. The nv 2.1.7 driver update adds support for the GeForce 8800GT and Quadro FX 3700, improved load detection, and a couple of fixes. The 2.0.3 release has a few more changes back-ported from the xf86-video-nv 2.1 series, including new GeForce 8 desktop/mobile product support. The release announcement made by Aaron Plattner can be read on the X.Org mailing list.
