Developer Faith Ekstrand has written up a fresh blog post on Collabora which goes over implementing two extensions in NVK, the open source NVIDIA Vulkan driver, and how it ended up fixing actual games.

Another surprise from NVIDIA here. On top of one developer contributing to Nouveau, we have another developer now contributing to NVK.

Ben Skeggs, former Nouveau lead developer and former Red Hat employee has joined NVIDIA and appears to still be working on the open source drivers.

You may have seen news recently about explicit sync for Wayland, but you might not know why it's actually important for the future of Linux on Wayland.

Danilo Krummrich who is a Red Hat display driver team Software Engineer, announced the Nova project, a Rust-based GSP-only driver for Nvidia GPUs.

NVIDIA has today released a fresh stable bug-fix driver with version 550.67 now available for Linux. So here's all the changes you'll find.

The future of NVIDIA hardware on Linux is here with the open source Vulkan driver NVK in Mesa, as there's now a Merge Request to have it shipped by default.

NVIDIA has revealed new GPU driver security issues in their latest bulletin, so here's what you need to know if you're using an NVIDIA GPU on Linux.

NVIDIA today launched the 550.54.14 Linux driver as stable coming with a whole bunch of fixes and improvements, so here's all that's changed.

A recent merge request on the Mesa Git repository added the initial support for allowing drivers to chose Zink as the translation layer for handling OpenGL.

NVIDIA has today launched the 550.40.07 Beta driver for Linux which includes numerous important fixes, so you might want to jump in and give this one a thorough gaming test.

NVIDIA released driver version 535.154.05 for Linux bringing with it a few useful sounding bug fixes, so here's what's new for the first NVIDIA update of 2024. NOTE: ARTICLE UPDATED.

Much like AMD did today for CES 2024, much of NVIDIA's event was also all about AI but there's a few bits in there for normal consumers like the announcement of Half-Life 2 RTX, plus GeForce RTX 40 SUPER Series GPUs.

Developer Faith Ekstrand has given a holiday update on the state of NVK, the unofficial open source NVIDIA Vulkan driver and how it's coming along that's worth a read as it's all quite exciting.

NVIDIA has today released the 545.29.06 Linux stable driver. A small one with only a few useful sounding fixes.

A big step for the in-development open source NVIDIA Vulkan driver NVK, as Collabora have announced how it's hit Vulkan 1.0 conformance.

NVIDIA today launched four new stable Linux graphics drivers, yes four. 545.29.02 is the bigger one with all the new stuff, but they also launched 535.129.03, 525.147.05 and 470.223.02 due to newly disclosed security issues.

After being a little quiet for a while, NVIDIA released Beta driver 545.23.06 which includes a bunch of new features and a few bug fixes too.

An NVIDIA engineer has sent in pull requests to DXVK, VKD3D-Proton and DXVK-NVAPI to enable support for Reflex / NV low latency to get it hooked up in Proton.

DXVK-NVAPI is an alternative NVAPI (NVIDIA API) implementation used with DXVK and VKD3D-Proton for running Windows games on Linux and Steam Deck through Proton.
