NVIDIA 304.30 Supports FXAA, X Server 1.13, K10

Wow that is really sad... even slower than xf86-video-vesa, god damn.

AFAIK the vesa driver uses shadowfb, which is a lot faster than most folks realize.

any relief for users of four screens? e.g. XRandR support w/xinerama or Quadview support?

[Plagman]

Up to four screens are supported natively with Kepler GPUs, two otherwise. You can get three screens without Xinerama if you have two identical pre-Kepler GPUs using SLI BaseMosaic.

They might be sucking up to us after linus made them look bad

I always get a chuckle when people attribute stuff to the Linus middle finger. As if it has magical abilities or something. Ignore the fact that Nvidia already did this before, no, it was the middle finger!

WARNING

Do not use NVIDIA 304.30 driver !!!! I just try to use it in XUBUNTU 12.04 LTS and console programs color are completly FUBAR !!!!

WORSE, Enemy Territory QUAKE Wars game colors are completly FUBAR !!!!

The issue is a massive BLUE TINT all over !!!

I had to "revert" back to 304.22....PERFECT COLORS !!!

Who would like to try a new Nvidia Beta against an old stable LTS release, but you. Has anyone tested with ubuntu-12.10 or another current software?

12.04 is old ?!?

LOL, it was launched in April of this year !!!

12.10 is in ALPHA stage, LOL !!!

12.04 is stable ?!? Since April 200-300 updates !!!

Do you think that you can test a ALPHA distro release and a video driver that actually is also an ALPHA ?!?

At least i'm 100% sure from who was the fault of the failure !!!

There is a reason for not be listed even in Beta drivers in NVIDIA site

These kinda of drivers only in their FTP site are really bleeding edge and most natural thing is that they fail....and might even screw up your VC...

My Amiga Workbench 3.1 desktop is all blue with these drivers
