[Bug 758674] Re: nvidia-current 270.30 claims 8600M GT is not supported

 

[   35.260297] NVRM: The NVIDIA GPU 0000:01:00.0 (PCI ID: 10de:0407) installed
[   35.260298] NVRM: in this system is not supported by the 270.30 NVIDIA Linux
[   35.260300] NVRM: graphics driver release.  Please see 'Appendix A -
[   35.260301] NVRM: Supported NVIDIA GPU Products' in this release's README,
[   35.260302] NVRM: available on the Linux graphics driver download page at
[   35.260303] NVRM: www.nvidia.com.

01:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: nVidia Corporation G84 [GeForce 8600M GT] [10de:0407] (rev a1) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller])
	Subsystem: Acer Incorporated [ALI] Device [1025:0121]

  GeForce 8M series:
  8800M GTX, 8400M GS, 8200M G, 8600M GT, 8400M G, 8600M GS, 8400M GT, 8800M GTS, 8700M GT

http://us.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/270.18/README/supportedchips.html
  GeForce 8600M GT	0x0407	A

Doublechecked Appendix A in the 270.30 README, and it also lists the
chip.  Changelog in the package doesn't show any chips being deprecated
recently.  So something's fishy.
