NVIDIA 575.51.02 Linux Driver Beta Released With Smooth Motion Support


With today's launch of the GeForce RTX 5060 Ti graphics card, NVIDIA has also introduced their first Linux driver beta in the R575 driver series.

The new driver extends the __NV_DISABLE_EXPLICIT_SYNC behavior to GLX and Vulkan apps, supports GLX front-buffer rendering on XWayland, fixes a Minecraft crash under XWayland, support for the color range and color encoding DRM plane properties, adds support for NVIDIA Smooth Motion, and brings various other bug fixes. The driver release notes don't mention it but presumably this beta driver also brings official GeForce RTX 5060 series support and I'm now checking that out to verify Linux games hopefully working nicely on the RTX 5060 Ti.About The AuthorMichael Larabel is the principal author of Phoronix.com and founded the site in 2004 with a focus on enriching the Linux hardware experience.
