[Alberto Milone (tseliot)]

nvidia-graphics-drivers-177 (177.76-0ubuntu1) intrepid; urgency=low

  * Add driver 177.76 (LP: #272572):
     * Added support for the following new GPUs:
       o GeForce 9500 GT
     * Fixed a bug that caused GPU errors when applications used
       the X RENDER extension's repeating modes in conjunction
       with color-index overlays or rotation on GeForce 7 series
       and older GPUs.
     * Fixed a bug that caused system hangs when using the
       NV-CONTROL interface to change GPU clock frequencies.
     * Fixed a text rendering performance regression on GeForce 7
       series and older GPUs when InitialPixmapPlacement is set
       to 2.
     * Updated mode validation, in cases when no EDID is detected,
       such that 1024x768 @60Hz and 800x600 @ 60Hz are allowed,
       rather than just 640x480 @ 60Hz.
     * Improved power management support.
     * Improved compatibility with recent Linux 2.6 kernels.
     * Fixed a regression that caused the 'Auto' SLI X option
       setting to not enable SLI.
     * Added a workaround for broken EDIDs provided by some Acer
       AL1512 monitors.
  * Fix (LP: #262027) Make sure to remove (in
    nvidia-177-kernel-source.postinst) any directory which
    was not removed because of bug 261816
