Gentoo portage just released *.36 into ~amd64 so people on testing can't use the driver yet. I know Ubuntu is shipping with version 260, so I wouldn't think it's still in beta.

So with little tinkering applied for nvidia-drivers-256.53.ebuild, I am able to compile those drivers. (I don't know how they work yet, though.) The question is, would this patch (and later potential stabilizing of 256.53) be an acceptable alternative for unmasking masked drivers? Ebuild was modified as per following, shown here only for reference. The .txt extension was removed from the file posted in the forums. I'll post the real deals (ebuild and the patch) if there's any point for doing that. --- /usr/portage/x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers/nvidia-drivers-256.53.ebuild 2010-08-31 18:57:49.000000000 +0300 +++ /usr/local/portage/x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers/nvidia-drivers-256.53.ebuild 2010-11-05 17:03:37.000000000 +0200 @@ -277,6 +277,10 @@ # If greater than 2.6.5 use M= instead of SUBDIR= convert_to_m "${NV_SRC}"/Makefile.kbuild + + if kernel_is ge 2 6 36; then + epatch "${FILESDIR}"/NVIDIA-Linux-x86-256.53-linux-2.6.36.patch + fi fi } Reply at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers/+bug/627022/comments/10 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ On 2010-11-06T18:38:16+00:00 J.Schlick wrote: (In reply to comment #7) > x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-260.19.12 is masked as being beta but it's marked > stable on the nvidia website. > > Does it still ahve major issues? > opengl stuff is buggy or at least does not work as expected.

Now I have 3.6.36-r5 kernel running smoothly with nvidia-drivers-256.53, but it is NOT using any patches attached here. Instead the patch (mentioned in my comment) that contains 3 very small changes is used. Additionally it seems, that some of 260.*-series drivers are not hardmasked anymore so the question is, do we want working older (256.53) drivers beside new cutting-edge drivers, or not?
