While NVIDIA continue working on the new 595 Beta series, they've just released driver 580.142 for Linux as the latest recommended stable driver.
As a recommended driver it means "This driver meets the quality levels applied to Windows drivers that pass testing in Windows Hardware Quality Labs (WHQL), therefore providing the same attention to driver reliability, robustness, and performance for non-Windows operating systems (e.g., Linux)" according to NVIDIA.
Only a few changes for version 580.142 which are:
- Fixed a bug that caused adaptive sync displays to go blank when connected with an active USB-C-to-HDMI adapter.
- Fixed a bug that could cause Vulkan swapchains to stop presenting new frames on X11.
- Fixed a regression, introduced after the 470.xx release series, that could cause four 4k monitors, driven as separate X11 X screens on one GPU, to fail modeset.
