nVIDIA GeForce6/GeForce7/GeForce8/GeForce9/GeForce GTX 200/Quadro Series Display Driver 185.18.14 Solaris x64/x86.

Release Highlights:

Fixed a Xinerama drawable resource management problem that can cause GLXBadDrawable errors in certain cases, such as when Wine applications are run.

Fixed XineramaQueryScreens to return 0 screens instead of 1 screen with the geometry of screen 0 when XineramaIsActive returns false. This conforms to the Xinerama manual page and fixes an interaction problem with Compiz when there is more than one X screen.

Added support for new horizontal interlaced and checkerboard passive stereo modes.

Fixed a DisplayPort interaction problem with power management suspend/resume events.

Fixed occasional X driver memory management performance problems when a composite manager is running.

Fixed a bug with VT-switching or mode-switching while using Compiz; the bug could lead to a corrupted desktop (e.g., a white screen) or in the worst case an X server crash.

Fixed a bug that could cause GPU errors in some cases while driving Quadro SDI products.

Fixed a several second hang when VT-switching while OpenGL stereo applications were running on pre-G80 Quadro GPUs.

Added support for multiple swap group members on G80 and later Quadro GPUs.

Fixed the behavior of the NV_CTRL_FRAMELOCK_SYNC_DELAY NV-CONTROL attribute on Quadro G-Sync II.

Fixed a problem with Quadro SDI where transitioning from "clone mode" to "OpenGL mode" would fail.

Fixed VDPAU to eliminate some cases of corruption when decoding H.264 video containing field-coded reference frames on G84, G86, G92, G94, G96, or GT200 GPUs. Such streams are commonly found in DVB broadcasts.

Slightly improved the performance of the VDPAU noise reduction algorithm.

Enhanced VDPAU to validate whether overlay usage is supported by the current hardware configuration, and to automatically fall back to the blit-based presentation queue if required.

Fixed error checking in VdpVideoMixerRender, to reject calls that specify more layers than the VdpMixer was created with.

Modified VDPAU's VDPAU_DEBUG code to emit a complete backtrace on all platforms, not just on 32-bit Linux.

Improved interaction between VDPAU and PowerMizer; appropriate performance levels should now be chosen for video playback of all standard resolutions on all supported GPUs.

Fixed a bug in VDPAU that sometimes caused "display preemption" when the VdpDecoderCreate function failed.

Fixed a potential segfault in the VDPAU trace library, triggered by a multi-threaded application creating a new VdpDevice in one thread, at the same time that another thread detected "display preemption".

nVIDIA GeForce GTX/GTS Series Features:

Simply the Fastest:

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 200M and GTS 100M Series notebook GPUs deliver an awesome gaming experience and offer up to 50% more performance than the previous generation. Lead by the highest performing notebook GPU in the world, this new line-up by NVIDIA provides the ultimate notebook gaming experience.

Not satisfied with the fastest single-GPU notebook in the world Double up. With NVIDIA SLI technology, two GeForce GPUs work in parallel for up to 2x more performance on today's hottest games.

Real-World Gaming Effects: Gaming is becoming more and more realistic. NVIDIA PhysX technology enables a totally new class of physical gaming interaction for a more dynamic and realistic gaming experience - filled with lifelike explosions, natural water, and cloth that drapes and tears naturally. GeForce GTX and GTS series notebook GPUs come with out-of-the-box support for these new class of PhysX-accelerated games.


Transcode Your Videos 10x Faster: What else can you do with a new GTX or GTS notebook GPU besides gaming NVIDIA CUDA technology unlocks the power of the GPU's processor cores to accelerate the most demanding system tasks - such as video transcoding - delivering incredible performance improvements over traditional CPUs.


Vibrant Multimedia: Bring the latest Blu-ray movies to life with NVIDIA PureVideo HD technology. Sharp images, smooth video transitions, and vibrant colors are reproduced on screen using very little power. Learn more > And for the creatively-inclined, Adobe Photoshop CS4 allows you to work with the canvas in faster, more intuitive ways using the power of the GPU - rotate, zoom, pan, and resize brushes in real-time.


Battery to Last. And Last.: NVIDIA is the pioneer in advancing low power visual computing for notebooks. NVIDIA HybridPower technology unleashes graphics performance when you need it, or switches to a lower power integrated GPU for longer battery life.
