NVIDIA 177.80 Display Driver

I use a real 32bits browser.

Anyway, flash9 works but it's damn slow.

Hi,

This driver fixed KDE4 2D performance on KDE4 but introduced a new issue.
I can't play any flash video in fullscreen.
I'm using debian 64bits + 32bits firefox from mozilla.com + 32bits flash10 beta flayer.

Videos works fine in windowed mode but when I switch to fullscreen firefox freeze.

Anyone have the same issue ?

Check if you can get a newer version of nspluginwrapper as older versions (ie not latest snapshots) dont work well with flash 10

Works fine with flash 9

Usually they work even with not mentioned hardware.

That's good to know...but another update could then make that support official for such cards. Doesn't hurt to try out the driver on a card such as the 9800GX2 as a poster above mentioned.

Do i understand this coreectly; these drivers do not support my 9800 GX2?

A new feature was omitted from the official change log, I think.

Audio through HDMI now works with this new driver. This includes SPDIF passthrough for DVI-HDMI connections, not just cards with HDMI.

See this thread: http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=97993

Yes this is a driver issue. We recently implemented support for audio through HDMI and it is expected to ship in the release 177 driver when available. I suggest you periodically check our web site for driver updates to version 177.

Now with AMD splitting, I wonder how this will change things.

very little probably, amd is only spinning off its production division. Graphics and software is still housed under amd

Seems like times are changing. Nvidia were once the only option in Linux. Now they are slipping behind Intel and AMD. Now with AMD splitting, I wonder how this will change things.
