Bug 182703 – stabilize media-video/nvidia-settings-1.0.20070302

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Angelo Arrifano (RETIRED) 2007-06-20 16:28:10 UTC]

x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-1.0.9755-r1
and
media-video/nvidia-settings-1.0.20070302

Both runs perfectly here.

The driver loads and unloads without problems.
I have full hardware acceleration while gaming or using GL -vo in mplayer.

The nvidia-settings app is very useful, that version allows detecting/configuring display devices without restarting X.
This nvidia-settings version never crashed and allowed me to use external display devices like projectors and TVs.

I'm using this driver+app combination for at least one month.

HW: nVIDIA GeforceFX 53xx Go

Reproducible: Always
