NVIDIA today released their latest recommended driver version 580.126.09 for Linux but it's quite light on actual changes and improvements. This is their main stable branch that receives bug-fixes, with the newer stuff coming in the 590 series that had a first proper release recently with 590.48.01 back in December.

The three improvements noted in version 580.126.09 are:

  • Fixed a bug that prevented certain display modes that require YUV 4:2:0 subsampling from working.
  • Improved compatibility with recent Linux kernels.
  • Updated libnvidia-egl-gbm to commit a73cbce to support FP16 DRM formats.
