           Summary: nv driver updates from Mark Vojkovich
           Product: xorg
           Version: CVS_head
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Driver/nVidia
        AssignedTo: xorg-bugzilla-noise at freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: alan.coopersmith at sun.com


Mark Vojkovich has committed the following fixes to the nv driver in XFree86 CVS
since the trees were last sync'ed.   Andy Ritger has confirmed these changes are
all covered by the Nvidia license and not the XFree86 1.1 license and encouraged
their integration into the Xorg tree.

   Support for new NVIDIA chips.
   Egbert has a laptop that needs some DPMS ordering reversed.
   New chip support and workaround for Toshiba M30 laptop issue.
   PCI-Xpress chip support.
   DPMS support for DVI.
   Cursor changes for NV11 so that alpha blended cursors will work
      in conjunction with dithering (laptop panels).  It previously
      did not.
   HW support for alpha blended stretch blits on NV5 and higher,
      though nothing is using them at this point.
   Add support for VBlank syncing the Xv Blit adaptor on hardware
      that supports it (NV11 and higher).
   Make console restoration a little more robust.  We were making
      an assumption that failed on a newer laptop.
   Workaround for some NV31 DVI artifacts.
