---------------
nvidia-graphics-drivers-304 (304.123-0ubuntu0.0.1) precise-proposed; urgency=medium

  * debian/substvars:
    - Add support for X ABIs 15 and 18 and for lts-trusty (LP: #1294163).
  * New upstream release:
    - Improved compatibility with recent Linux kernels (LP: #1294163).
    - Fixed a bug that could result in system instability while
      restoring the VGA console.
    - Fixed an interaction problem with xserver 1.15 that
      occasionally caused OpenGL applications to continue rendering
      when they are minimized or unmapped.
    - Updated nvidia-bug-report.sh to search the systemd journal for
      X server logs and messages from the NVIDIA kernel module.
    - Added support for X.org xserver ABI 18 (xorg-server 1.16).
    - Fixed a bug that caused corruption or blank screens on monitors
      that use EDID version 1.3 or older when they are connected via
      DisplayPort on graphics boards that use external DisplayPort
      encoders, such as the Quadro FX 4800.

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  * The 3.13 trusty backport kernel for 12.04 will be released fairly
  soon.  Some people have started testing the daily builds out the the
  Kernel Team PPA.  However the NVIDIA binary drivers in precise need
  patches to support the 3.13 kernel.

  [Test Case]

   * The latest Nvidia binary driver series in 12.04 should work with
  the upcomping 3.13 backport kernel; it currently does not.

  [Regression Potential]

   * Low.  The patches enable compatibility with newer kernels but do
  not affect installations on older kernels.
