Description Evgenii Shatokhin 2015-08-11 23:41:56 MSK
A new potentially long-lived branch of NVidia's graphics drivers, 352.x, is now available. The updates of libvdpau and ldetect-lst are needed for it as well.
Comment 1 Evgenii Shatokhin 2015-08-11 23:57:45 MSK
Advisory:
The packages for version 352.30 of the NVidia's graphics drivers are now available. Compared to the branch 346.x, this version provides support for 2 more OpenGL extensions (GL_ARB_copy_buffer, GL_ARB_texture_buffer_object), a few enhancements to VDPAU (support for lossless H.264/AVC video streams, decoding of H.265/HEVC video streams), G-SYNC improvements and more. 

nvidia352 requires the updates of libvdpau to version 1.1 and ldetect-lst to version 0.1.331, which have also been prepared.

Build lists:

ldetect-lst, version 0.1.331 (needed for XFdrake to see the new driver)

Comment 2 Evgenii Shatokhin 2015-08-12 00:07:17 MSK
Hints for testing

1. After adding the containers, it may be convenient to update ldetect-lst first and then use XFdrake to select the new driver and setup the graphics.

As usual with the different driver packages, a regular package update will not replace nvidia346 with nvidia352 automatically. It is needed to use XFdrake.

2. If one needs to check support for CUDA, the following additional packages are needed:
nvidia-cuda-toolkit
nvidia-cuda-toolkit-devel
nvidia352-devel
nvidia352-cuda-opencl

No additional symlinks to libcuda.so (unlike http://forum.rosalab.ru/viewtopic.php?f=53&t=4529&p=48730#p48676) should be required here.
