* Added a workaround for an X server bug with PCI-E GeForce 6800 and GeForce 6600; a fix has been provided to XFree86 and XOrg.
* Fixed stability problems on x86_64 PCI-E systems.
* Fixed 2D rendering corruption on certain older GPUs.
* Improved compatibility with Linux 2.6 kernels.
* Fixed compatibility problems with some SWIOTLB em64t systems.
* Fixed a bug that triggered error messages of the form: "ioctl32(doom.x86:6747): Unknown cmd fd(16) cmd(c0384642){00} arg(ffffc75c) on /dev/nvidiactl"
* Fixed NvAGP incompatibility with recent Linux 2.6 kernels.
* Improved interaction with the udev filesystem.
