For those of you who used the installer, you should be able to run nvidia-installer --updateto install 1.0-4363.

So this is basically just bugfixes, right?

I notice that the link to the errata is currently 404'ing -- is this because there is no errata at all, or will it be up shortly?

BTW -- holy cow, short release cycle. ;) :scarey: Thanks!

EDIT: There appears to be an extremely minor typo in the README:

Driver release 1.0-4363 introduces a new packaging
and installation mechanism, which greatly simplifies the
installation process. There is only a single file to download:
NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-1.0-4363.run. This contains everything
previously contained by the old NVIDIA_kernel and NVIDIA_GLX packages. Shouldn't that be NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-4363.run instead (i.e. one 1.0-, not two)? ;)

I notice that the link to the errata is currently 404'ing -- is this because there is no errata at all, or will it be up shortly?That's because you guys haven't made me reach for my tums bottle yet! ;)

Shouldn't that be NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-4363.run instead (i.e. one 1.0-, not two)? BAH! :D

I have a Dell Inspiron 2650 (1.6gHz C/384mb/20gb) with the GF2go chip. My X setup was working well, albeit slowly (385fps glxgears 24bit/1024x768), untill I installed the new drivers.

Now, my laptop powers down (i.e. cannot be pinged from a neighbor on the network) when I start X. Unfortunately, no errors are returned in the XF86 log.

Any ideas?

Andy, just to report that the 4363 driver works great on my configuration:

RedHat 8.0 upgrade to latest kernel
Dual-PIII 440BX ASUS Motherboard
GeForce4 TI4800
Apple Cinema Display

Almost all the problems I've seen in 4191 are gone, except the messed up icons on the desktop when RenderAccel is set to True. Actually, is there anything to be gained by setting that option to True? I don't feel any speedup with or without that option.

2D drawing is much improved, especially when two mozilla windows with lots of graphic contents are moving across each other. Previously I felt like the mouse is dragging a ten ton godzilla, now it feel much responsive. A funny series of frames around the window were drawn, but the window content seems to refresh only once when the dragging is stopped. Fast but not the fastest. However, beyond that, I think it's Gnome develper's issues, not nVidia's.

Thanks to have a great job done in such a short time frame. Previously when 4349 came out but I can't use it due to my SMP/DFP configurations, I was somewhat disappointed.

Thank you NVIDIA!

Just two comments on the nvidia-installer --update command.

* The installer should at least cache the latest driver bundle. The first time I ran --update it donwloaded 4363 and proceeded to install, but it failed (see second point). When I reran the installer, after fixing the problem manually, it downloaded the 4363 package again.

* The installer didn't unload the existing nvidia.o driver, so inserting the freshly compiled module failed. After manually rmmod'ing the module all went fine on the subsequent run.

Going to test Dual-head now. Again, thanks Nvidia (kudos Andy!!)

Good suggestions - i'll look into that. We do accept patches. ;)

ctrl-alt-+/- now works again in TwinView! Thank you nvidia guys for fixing that so quickly.:afro: I was quite afraid I'd have to wait a long time for that to be fixed.

did the --update, everything went perfect, and fixed that bug.

Thank you!

install worked great and no problems so far.
thank you!

im asking myself (and andy:) whats this
new dir in /usr/lib called tls for ?
it includes the same ogl lib names like in the lib dir but they have a slightly different filesize.
can i remove this dir?

thanks NV!

best,
lars

----
update:

ok, seems to be a rtfm case :)
found the answer in the readme
...
ELF TLS OpenGL and OpenGL core libraries
(/usr/lib/tls/libGL.so.x.y.z and /usr/lib/tls/libGLcore.so.x.y.z).
Linux systems that utilize glibc 2.3 or greater with tls support
enabled, use a new mechanism for thread local storage (TLS).
This mechanism is incompatible with NVIDIA's previous thread
local storage support; therefore, special ELF TLS libraries are
provided, and installed in /usr/lib/tls/ on systems that support it.
The runtime loader will select between the OpenGL libraries installed
in /usr/lib/, and those installed in /usr/lib/tls/

is that everything in: ... also all KT400 mobo problems? including 4x AGP cards in such a mobo with AGP support?

I did want to check the errata first before installing, because after uninstalling the previous driver, XFree didn't want to start anymore at boot time with the nv driver...

thanx for the quick fixes!!!

Yes, I fully expect that to work. If it doesn't, i'd like to know.

Just updated from 4349 to 4363. These drivers seem to be faster, at least glxgears say it so.

This is with Side Band Addressing and FastWrites enabled (Geforce4 Ti 4200-8x, KT400, Asus A7V8X), which, at least with 4349 appeared to be stable (not enough time using 4363).

Where are RPMS on this new version?

I have 200+ to manage and i have something
to automatically install rpm package.

Then i can't use the new installer and i would
prefer not to bloat my rpm database.

The changelog from http://www.nvidia.com/view.asp?IO=linux_display_ia32_1.0-4363 returns a 404 and there is no difference in between the 4349 and 4363 NVIDIA_Changelog files.

So what changed, other than "all the erratta"?

It's a 404 because there isn't yet an errata list. I suppose it would be better to link to an empty file rather than have a dead link.

So what changed, other than "all the erratta"?This was a bugfix release from 1.0-4349 - all issues listed in the 1.0-4349 errata were fixed. Those fixes were the only real changes in this driver.

I have a Dell Inspiron 8100 and 3123 has worked fine. However, 4191 and 4349 both wouldn't work on my laptop. I would get a "panel bloom" if I tried the native resolution of 1400x1050. However, the 4363 drivers do work at 1400x1050. No more panel bloom. :) Good job on the drivers.
