Public bug reported: [Impact] These releases provide both bug fixes and new features, and we would like to make sure all of our users have access to these improvements.
See the changelog entry below for a full list of changes and bugs. [Test Case] The following development and SRU process was followed: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NVidiaUpdates Certification test suite must pass on a range of hardware: https://git.launchpad.net/plainbox-provider-sru/tree/units/sru.pxu The QA team that executed the tests will be in charge of attaching the artifacts and console output of the appropriate run to the bug. nVidia maintainers team members will not mark ‘verification-done’ until this has happened. [Regression Potential] In order to mitigate the regression potential, the results of the aforementioned system level tests are attached to this bug. [Discussion] 440.82: * [TO BE COMPLETED] * New upstream release: - Added a workaround for Steam Play title DOOM Eternal, which overrides application requested memory locations, to ensure performance-critical resources be placed in video memory. - Allow presenting from queue families which only expose VK_QUEUE_COMPUTE_BIT when using XCB in addition to Xlib surfaces. - Fixed a bug that caused render-offloaded applications to crash on exit. - Fixed a driver installation failure on Linux kernel 5.6 release candidates, where the NVIDIA kernel module failed to build with error "implicit declaration of function 'timespec_to_ns'". - Fixed a driver installation failure on Linux kernel 5.6 release candidates, where the NVIDIA kernel module failed to build with error "implicit declaration of function 'getrawmonotonic'". - Fixed a driver installation failure on Linux kernel 5.6 release candidates, where the NVIDIA kernel module failed to build with error "implicit declaration of function 'timespec_to_ns'". - Fixed a driver installation failure on Linux kernel 5.6 release candidates, where the NVIDIA kernel module failed to build with error "implicit declaration of function 'getrawmonotonic'". - Fixed a driver installation failure on Linux kernel 5.6 release candidates, where the NVIDIA kernel module failed to build with error "implicit declaration of function 'getnstimeofday'". - Fixed a driver installation failure on Linux kernel 5.6 release candidates, where the NVIDIA kernel module failed to build with error "dereferencing pointer to incomplete type 'struct timeval'". - Fixed a driver installation failure on Linux kernel 5.6 release candidates, where the NVIDIA kernel module failed to build with error "implicit declaration of function 'jiffies_to_timespec'". - Fixed driver installation failure on Linux kernel 5.6 release candidates, where the NVIDIA kernel module failed to build with error "passing argument 4 of 'proc_create_data' from incompatible pointer type". 435: * [TO BE COMPLETED] 390.132: * [TO BE COMPLETED] nvidia-settings (440.82-0ubuntu0.18.04.1): * [TO BE COMPLETED] ** Affects: nvidia-graphics-drivers-440 (Ubuntu) Importance: High Assignee: Alberto Milone (albertomilone) Status: In Progress -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1881137 Title: Introduce the new NVIDIA 418-server and 440-server series, and update the current NVIDIA drivers To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-440/+bug/1881137/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
