There are a lot of good improvements and fixes in this release. As a remorseful Nvidia on Linux user, I am extremely excited that GAMMA_LUT is finally making its debut in the Nvidia driver. This means I can actually try to use Gnome Wayland at night with the night shift feature, assuming other Wayland issues are also resolved.

Better late than never, glad to see things slowly but surely getting better for NVIDIA users

Hopefully, this release also includes this fix for forced Vsync for fullscreen games under KDE Wayland.

Life sure is harder for vampires these days. Not only do you have to worry about garlic and stakes, but there's also running tap water, concentrated solar energy, and Nvidia drivers going full brightness...

This is the best summary I could come up with:


NVIDIA today published their first R545 Linux driver beta series with a number of shiny new features.

The NVIDIA 545.23.06 beta Linux driver was just posted as what will be their next feature series.

With the NVIDIA R545 Linux driver series come a number of exciting features:

  • Experimental HDMI 10 bits-per-component "deep color" support can be optionally enabled using a new "hdmi_deepcolor" module parameter.

  • Experimental support for run-time D3 (RTD3) power management for NVIDIA desktop GPUs.

  • Experimental support for frame-buffer consoles provided by the NVIDIA DRM kernel driver.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
