Description schmitt953 2012-08-18 16:15:19 UTC

Nvidia has fixed the blue people bug without the patch that disables acceleration in libvdpau. Also they have fixed X crashing, as soon as these drivers can be stabilized they should. I am installing them now on an otherwise stable system and will report back as I am affected by the bugs in nvidia-drivers.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Use something with flash 11.2 (sometimes that is not even necessary)
2. X freezes
Actual Results:  
X freezes, blue people on youtube with hardware acceleration enabled.

Expected Results:  
It should not have any horrible xorg freezes where I can't use the mouse and keyboard. Also red and blue shouldn't switch on youtube. The new drivers being stabilized should fix all of this

We aren't stabilizing the first release from a new series within a week of release. Let's kick it around more.
