Public bug reported: Binary package hint: nvidia-glx-180
Please upgrade to NVIDIA 180.37. Despite this being a pre-release it fixes a number of KDE issues as well as VDPAU problems and is functionally superior to the 180.35 revision. Thanks Release Highlights: * Fixed a problem that caused signals to be blocked in some applications. * Fixed a problem that could cause Xid errors and display corruption in certain cases when OpenGL is used to render to redirected windows, for example when Java2D is used with the -Dsun.java2d.opengl=true option. * glGetStringi(GL_EXTENSIONS, i) no longer returns NULL in OpenGL 3.0 preview contexts. * Fixed a problem that caused the screen to flicker momentarily when OpenGL applications exit unexpectedly on GeForce 6 and 7 series GPUs. * Fixed an X server crash when an X client attempts to draw trapezoids and RenderAccel is disabled. * Improved recovery from certain types of errors. * VDPAU updates: o Fixed corruption on some H.264 clips. o Update documentation. o Fixed VC-1 decoding on 64-bit platforms. o Improved handling of invalid H.264 streams. o Fixed a problem that caused surfaces to be marked as visible too early when the blit presentation queue is in use.
