any important features?
It seems like 310 was just released a month ago

I suppose I should have thought to add this link:

Mostly bug fixes, but a few new features.

Cheers

Most of it is gibberish to me.
they didn't list any game fixes either.
I may try it in Mint if its available.
LinSteam requires that our drivers and OS are always up to date

New nVidia dirvers version 313.18 made available in Gentoo, binary packages for other distros soon to follow, I'm sure.

Keep your eyes peeled

I'm off to install new drivers! ":O}

 

[booman]

at your own risk of course

I tried both Mint update and my favorite update method:

sudo apt-add-repository ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install nvidia-current nvidia-settings
nvidia-settings

Both gave me 313.09

So...not quite yet... will be checking regular like...":O}

 

[booman]

oh wow, I don't even have 313 yet, I'm still on 310

 

[Daniel~]

Sorry! I should have posted something...313.09 have been out a while now!

 

[booman]

I thought 310 was released early this month?

 

[Daniel~]

I thought 310 was released early this month?

I'm just guessing but I think I've had the 313.09 for around two weeks now...?

 

[booman]

wow, I can't keep up!

 

[Daniel~]

We will do better now that we have a forums to do our keeping up in .

 

[booman]

yup, you download every drivers and hardware firmware so I know which ones NOT to use

 

[Daniel~]

Years ago I got into trouble adopting early drivers...but I haven't had any trouble with new drivers as of late.

But yeah, I'm almost always up for new drivers and it WILL catch up with me one day. ":O}

 

[Daniel~]

As much as I do this....I can be soooo stupid! I just rebooted and THEN checked, I'm running 313.18 drivers.":O}

 

[booman]

cool, that was easy!
let us know if it breaks anything

 

[Daniel~]

They sweet fast and straight,
( I don't know why they run straight...I just needed a third thing to list...it was a momentum thing.":O}
