2004-07-23 version 1.0.7
* Added --kernel-output-path option to support separate KBUILD
output directories.
2004-01-12 version 1.0.6
* Add support for installing on Linux 2.6 kernels.
* Deprecate the "--kernel-include-path" commandline option,
in favor of "--kernel-source-path".
* Added "--no-rpms" option to disable the check for conflicting rpms.
2003-12-16 version 1.0.5
* Have nvidia-installer perforce a gcc version check itself (ie:
check that the current compiler and the compiler used to compile
the kernel are a close enough match to build the NVIDIA kernel module.
* Remove conflicting libraries in /usr/X11R6/lib/tls/
* Add new option "--no-abi-note".
2003-09-23 version 1.0.4
* When searching for a precompiled kernel interface, also look in
/lib/modules/precompiled/`uname -r`/nvidia/gfx/, and in
any directory specified by the new commandline option
"--precompiled-kernel-interfaces-path".
* When searching for a precompiled kernel interface, ensure that
the version number stamped in the precompiled kernel interface
matches that of the driver we are installing.
* Add tls_test binaries for IA64
* Rewrite the tls_test to more closely mimic the tls usage
pattern of the OpenGL driver: dlopen() a dso that uses the
local-exec access model to access a thread local variable.
2003-08-13 version 1.0.3
* Add new commandline option "--kernel-module-only" to allow
users to install additional kernel modules on top of an
existing installation.
* Add new commandline options "--no-network" and "--no-backup".
* Warn users if they are installing while in runlevel 1.
* Install a libGL.la file.
* Fix SEGV triggered when the signal handler called ui->close().
* When the user does not accept the license agreement,
print "License not accepted. Aborting installation." with
ui_message(), rather than ui_log() so that the user gets this
feedback displayed on screen, rather than just printed to the
log file.
2003-06-24 version 1.0.2
* Add new .run/installer option "--add-this-kernel"; when this option
is specified, the installer will build a precompiled kernel
interface for the running kernel, and the .run file will be
repackaged to include this new precompiled kernel interface.
* If we are building for a non-running kernel, specify that
kernel name on the depmod commandline line (see depmod(8)
manpage for details). Patch provided by Nigel Spowage
<Nigel.Spowage@energis.com>
* Only execute `/usr/bin/chrc.config` if the distro is SuSE or
UnitedLinux *and* the file exists. Patch from Stefan Dirsch
<sndirsch@suse.de>
2003-04-24 version 1.0.1
* Do not install the NVIDIA OpenGL header files by default;
they will be installed in the documentation directory,
and can be optionally installed on the system with the
"--opengl-headers" commandline option.
* Abort installation if any X server is currently running
(even if it is not using an NVIDIA driver). We check if an
X server is running by checking for existence of the files
/tmp/.X[0-7]-lock.
* Add a signal handler to tls_test to avoid dumping core files,
and prevent error messages from being printed to stdout.
2003-03-31 version 1.0
* Initial Release.
