nvidia-graphics-drivers-71 (71.86.08-0ubuntu1) jaunty; urgency=low

  * New upstream release. Supports the new X.org ABI (LP: #308410)
    * Fixed a problem that caused TV output on secondary TVs to be black and
      white on some GPUs.
    * Added the ability to run distribution provided pre- and post- installation
      hooks to 'nvidia-installer'; please see the 'nvidia-installer' manual page
      for details.
    * Fixed a problem that prevented X from starting on 2.6.29-rc1 with an error
      like the following:
      X:6500 map pfn expected mapping type write-combining for d0000000-d0500000,
      got uncached-minus
    * Fixed a server crash triggered by Kopete's new message popup when a composite
      manager is enabled.
    * Fixed a problem that caused nvidia-installer to remove Compiz's libglx.so.
    * Added "nvidia-uninstall" as a shortcut for "nvidia-installer --uninstall".
    * Improved compatibility with newer kernels.
  * debian/nvidia-glx-71.preinst:
    - Correct typo in the removal of diversions of /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libglx.so
  * debian/nvidia-glx-71.postrm.in
    - Do not remove libGL.so (LP: #309116)
  * debian/nvidia-glx-71-dev.preinst.in:
    - Add diversion on /usr/lib/libGL.so since (the postrm tries to remove it already)
  * debian/control.in: Make it conflict with driver 180
  * Make it easier to add the support for new flavours in nvidia-glx-VER.preinst
  * Switch to DKMS patching system (in debian/rules) so as to have different
    patches for different kernel versions
  * Drop ubuntu-71xx.patch since the driver is now compatible with the current kernel
  * Test the existence of the dkms folder in nvidia-71-kernel-source.postinst
  * Fix (LP: #262027) Make sure to remove (in nvidia-71-kernel-source.postinst)
    any directory which was not removed because of bug 261816
  * Fix (LP: #261816) Replace "remove" with "remove|upgrade" in the case loop
    in nvidia-71-kernel-source.prerm so that older versions of the drivers are
    removed in case of upgrade
  * Add diversions on /usr/lib/libGL.so.1, /usr/lib/libGL.so.1.2,
    /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libglx.so without checking their existence in
    Ubuntu 32 bit too (LP: #287470)
  * debian/scriptremove.sh:
    - Remove from source.
