Considering the hostilty of that company against the FOSS community, and adding their various frauds (eg. less vram than officially sold) I would never ever buy anything from them. I've got no idea how well nouveau works nowadays, but their proprietary crap always had been practically unusable since back in the 90th. --mtx -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss

As far as I'm aware the easiest way to get updated drivers is to use the Graphics Driver Team PPA: https://launchpad.net/~graphics-drivers/+archive/ubuntu/ppa J (not Ubuntu dev) -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
[14.04] nVidia GeForce 1080TI
Hello maintainers, first of all: thank you for your efforts. We are thinking of upgrading to current nVidia graphics cards. As far as I can see, the GeForce 1080 is supported since 367.27 while the GeForce 1080 TI is supported since 381.09. In Trusty Tahr, we seem to have access to 375 in the repositories. Do you plan on providing a version of the nVidia drivers >= 381.09 in the trusty repos?
