Fixed a bug that caused corruption when switching display modes in some applications that use transform feedback.
Fixed a bug that caused texture corruption on framebuffer depth attachments cleared using glClearTexImage().
Fixed a bug that artificially limited the maximum pixel clock on displays in some SLI Mosaic configurations.
Fixed a kernel memory leak that occurred when looping hardware-accelerated video decoding with VDPAU on Maxell-based GPUs.
Known Issues with this release: * Resuming from suspend may not be reliable on GeForce GTX 9xx boards in some configurations.
Note that many Linux distributions provide their own packages of the NVIDIA Linux Graphics Driver in the distribution’s native package management format. This may interact better with the rest of your distribution’s framework, and you may want to use this rather than NVIDIA’s official package.
Also note that SuSE users should read the SuSE NVIDIA Installer HOWTO before downloading the driver.
Installation instructions: Once you have downloaded the driver, change to the directory containing the driver package and install the driver by running, as root, sh ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-346.59.run
One of the last installation steps will offer to update your X configuration file. Either accept that offer, edit your X configuration file manually so that the NVIDIA X driver will be used, or run nvidia-xconfig
Note that the list of supported GPU products is provided to indicate which GPUs are supported by a particular driver version. Some designs incorporating supported GPUs may not be compatible with the NVIDIA Linux driver: in particular, notebook and all-in-one desktop designs with switchable (hybrid) or Optimus graphics will not work if means to disable the integrated graphics in hardware are not available. Hardware designs will vary from manufacturer to manufacturer, so please consult with a system’s manufacturer to determine whether that particular system is compatible.
Added support for VDPAU Feature Set H to the NVIDIA VDPAU driver. GPUs with VDPAU Feature Set H are capable of hardware-accelerated decoding of 8192×8192 (8k) H.265/HEVC video streams.
Fixed a bug that caused the X server to sometimes skip displaying Vulkan frames when the Composite extension is enabled.
Fixed a bug that would cause OpenGL applications to crash when creating a context on one X display connection, then making it current with no associated drawable on another X display connection. This fixes a crash when starting some versions of Matlab.
Fixed OpenGL presentation to SDI through the GLX_NV_video_out and GLX_NV_present_video extensions, which was broken by the introduction of the nvidia-modeset kernel module in 358.09.
Fixed a bug that caused an incorrect offset to be applied when using the full composition pipeline on a display whose image has both a rotation and a ViewportOut offset applied.
Fixed a bug that could cause nvidia-settings to crash on some systems when responding to events such as hotplugging DisplayPort devices.
Fixed a bug that could cause crashes in OpenGL applications which use glTextureView() with a non-zero minlevel.
Enhanced the Display Device information page in nvidia-settings with additional information for DisplayPort devices to reflect attributes which are specific to DisplayPort connections.
Fixed a bug which could cause deleted application profiles to appear when editing rules in the nvidia-settings control panel.
Fixed a bug that caused hangs when a G-SYNC monitor is unplugged and a non-G-SYNC monitor is connected while G-SYNC is active.
Fixed a bug that caused «nvidia-modeset: ERROR: GPU:0: Activating G-SYNC failed» to be printed to the system log if a G-SYNC monitor is connected and stereo is enabled in xorg.conf on a configuration that doesn’t support it.
Added the NV_robustness_video_memory_purge OpenGL extension, which allows applications to know when a mode switching or power event purged the contents of FBOs and BOs residing in video memory.
Fixed a bug that prevented HDMI 2.0 4K monitors from waking up from sleep or hot-replug.
Fixed a bug that could lead to a system crash if there was a peer-to-peer mapping still active during CUDA context teardown.
Known Issues with this release: When SLI is enabled, abnormal termination of the X server (such as with the SIGKILL signal) may result in a kernel panic.
