Four months since the launch of the 1.0-8178 Linux display drivers, NVIDIA is finally out of the starting gates with the official replacement. This 1.0-8756 release does include several new features such as nvidia-auto-select and Linux/i2c support over the 1.0-8178 release, as well as the hidden workstation-aimed 1.0-8183 release that we disclosed last month. Several other undocumented fixes also appear to have occurred, at least what we had discovered during our 1.0-8751 testing. In several other Phoronix articles, we also discussed the lack of such features as AIGLX in this release, and other pertinent information we have obtained from our sources.
