[News] Preview of New NVIDIA Linux Drivers

NVIDIA 1.0-9XXX Series Preview

,----[ Quote ]
| First off, NVIDIA's proprietary drivers in the upcoming 1.0-9XXX
| release should finally support the GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap
| extension. This extension is required in order to use AIGLX, which
| has been sought after by many Linux desktop users. 
| 
| [...]
| 
| The first release candidate for X.Org 7.2 is due out this October, but
| there has been no word yet from NVIDIA on their position for support.
| The next releases of Fedora and Ubuntu (Core 6 and Edgy Eft 6.10,
| respectively) will use X.Org 7.1 while OpenSuSE/SuSE looks like it
| will be the first major distribution to ship with X.Org 7.2. If X.Org
| 7.2 ends up breaking the API/ABI, it is not known when NVIDIA intend
| to deliver a supportive driver.
