NVIDIA Releases 185.18.14 Display Driver
NVIDIA hasn't released as many Linux driver updates in May as they have in past months, but this week they are out with the NVIDIA 185.18.14 driver update. This proprietary driver for x86 and x86_64 Linux features a variety of bug-fixes, VDPAU enhancements, and better support for newer Linux kernels. Interestingly, NVIDIA hasn't updated their proprietary FreeBSD or Solaris drivers to this latest version, nor have they even been updated in a while.
Some of the fixes in the NVIDIA 185.18.14 Linux driver update include fixing Xinerama with WINE and other programs to prevent GLXBadDrawable errors, more graceful fall-backs if the NVIDIA kernel module fails to load.
