NVIDIA 535.98 Linux Driver Released With Several Fixes
NVIDIA today rolled out a new stable point release in their R535 series for Linux users to provide a handful of bug fixes.
The NVIDIA 535.98 driver brings just seven known fixes ranging from excessive memory consumption while VT-switched away from the X.Org Server to VRR monitor issues to Vulkan corruption issues.
There isn't any particular super-notable fix but all around a nice handful of fixes for different areas of NVIDIA's proprietary Linux graphics driver stack.
If their usual release cadence holds true, a new beta for the next NVIDIA Linux driver stream should be appearing in the next few weeks.
The NVIDIA 535.98 Linux driver can be downloaded on NVIDIA.com.
The NVIDIA 535.98 driver brings just seven known fixes ranging from excessive memory consumption while VT-switched away from the X.Org Server to VRR monitor issues to Vulkan corruption issues.
There isn't any particular super-notable fix but all around a nice handful of fixes for different areas of NVIDIA's proprietary Linux graphics driver stack.
- Fixed a bug that caused excessive memory consumption when OpenGL and Vulkan applications were running while VT-switched away from X.
- Fixed a bug that could cause the kernel to panic when video memory is full.
- Fixed a bug that prevented displays from refreshing when using an NVIDIA PRIME Display Offload sink.
- Fixed a bug that could cause some Variable Refresh Rate (VRR) monitors to flicker by allowing the refresh rate to drop below the monitor's minimum.
- Fixed a bug that caused corruption when running Vulkan applications.
- Fixed a regression that could cause a system hang when running windowed Vulkan applications with sync-to-vblank enabled.
- Fixed a video memory leak observed when turning off a connected monitor while using certain Wayland compositors.
If their usual release cadence holds true, a new beta for the next NVIDIA Linux driver stream should be appearing in the next few weeks.
