,----[ Quote ]
| It was just last week that NVIDIA had 
| finally released a stable 190.xx Linux 
| driver after this driver series had been in 
| beta for months. The 190.xx driver series 
| brought new hardware support, OpenGL 3.2 
| support, VDPAU improvements, and a fair 
| amount of other changes. However, NVIDIA is 
| now in the process of readying the 195.xx 
| Linux driver series.

| around cursor is still present while 
| watching videos or with compiz enabled.

X Server 1.7.2 Is A Step Closer To Release

,----[ Quote ]
| At the end of October X Server 1.7.1 was 
| released and at that time Peter Hutterer 
| had said that the 1.7.2 build should arrive 
| in about five weeks. It hasn't been five 
| weeks yet, but it looks like he's still on 
| track to delivering this bug-fix release on 
| time or earlier. Peter has just announced 
| the first pre-1.7.2 development release.

| It's been no secret that NVIDIA has been working on
| an OpenCL Linux driver for their graphics processors
| just as AMD has been doing, but up until now their
| beta drivers were only available to registered
| NVIDIA developers. Today though -- on the same day
| as NVIDIA's OpenCL driver launch for Windows -- they
| have made their OpenCL support publicly available.
