NVIDIA 580.82.07 Driver Brings Fix For Vulkan On Wayland, Smooth Motion For RTX 40

([NVIDIA] 4 Hours Ago NVIDIA 580.82.07)


NVIDIA just released the 580.82.07 stable Linux driver as their newest R580 driver series update.

There are just a few changes with the NVIDIA 580.82.07 Linux driver update but they are notable. First up, there is a fix for an earlier R580 regression that could cause Vulkan applications to hang when running under Wayland.

The other notable item is adding support for NVIDIA Smooth Motion on GeForce RTX 40 series graphics cards. NVIDIA Smooth Motion is their AI-based feature to generate interpolated frames for enhancing motion fluidity in games lacking DLSS Frame Generation. Earlier this year in the NVIDIA R575 Linux driver release they [1]introduced NVIDIA Smooth Motion support on Linux with the RTX 50 Blackwell graphics cards while now it's coming to the prior-generation RTX 40 series.

The third and only other fix noted in today's NVIDIA 580.82.07 Linux driver release is fixing a DRM sysfs issue where the enabled attribute would always report "disabled" for NVIDIA GPU connectors.

Canonical, adj.:
The usual or standard state or manner of something. A true story:
One Bob Sjoberg, new at the MIT AI Lab, expressed some annoyance at the use
of jargon. Over his loud objections, we made a point of using jargon as
much as possible in his presence, and eventually it began to sink in.
Finally, in one conversation, he used the word "canonical" in jargon-like
fashion without thinking.
Steele: "Aha! We've finally got you talking jargon too!"
Stallman: "What did he say?"
Steele: "He just used `canonical' in the canonical way."
