=========================================
A new certified release 260.19.21 drver has been released and I would like to have this and test against xserver-xorg 1:7.6~2 or whatever it becomes when it's no longer blocking the use of the nvidia-glx package. I can wait on the Virtualbox issues listed above.
Thanks for the nvidia-cuda 3.1 update. The OpenCL demos against Bullet latest compile smoothly.
