When continuing our investigation for a recent article, it was
found that Hewlett-Packard is hosting a NVIDIA Linux display driver that
is numbered 1.0-8183. The interesting part about this is that the latest
drivers available from NVIDIA's official site are 1.0-8178, which was
released toward the end of last year. If you had read our other related
articles, you will also know that we have been testing the 1.0-8751 Beta
display drivers for most of this month now, and NVIDIA is not expected
to release a new set until early April. What is inside the drivers that
are entitled 8183 Revision 1? What are the details involved? We have a
small report today on these findings, as well as a download.
