NVIDIA's Aaron Plattner has put out the 195.36.07.03 driver with the primary change being the introduction of OpenGL 3.3 functionality. NVIDIA, however, recommends its Linux / BSD / OpenSolaris users that do not need OpenGL 3.3 support to continue running the 196.36.15 pre-release.
NVIDIA again is prompt to the game with delivering Linux support for new OpenGL specifications. They've been first all along with their OpenGL 3.x support and they even delivered early OpenGL 3.2 support before the specification had even been ratified. Though there aren't games or programs yet that we know of on Linux taking advantage of this brand new OpenGL spec, Unigine surely is working on something.
