Comment 1 Dimitrios Glentadakis 2011-09-13 19:20:20 CEST
i tested the driver NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-280.13.run in my system since the 10 Septembre and everything works fine.

I have kwin effects enabled

Also it has fixed a little problem that i had with the previous driver:

Unfortunately backports repository is still not opened.

Until it is, you can use http://onse.fi/nvidia-mgabuild/ to generate packages yourself.
Comment 4 Dimitrios Glentadakis 2011-12-16 06:06:18 CET
Thanks very much i installed the driver 290 64bit rpm with succes.
I have uploaded the rpms here:

And for i586:

http://www.mageia-gr.org/rpm/1/i586/

I close the bug as, comment #3, and availability by generating the rpms or install them already done from the above links.

Status: NEW => RESOLVED
Resolution: (none) => WONTFIX

Comment 6 Manuel Hiebel 2012-04-21 23:22:37 CEST
why closing as wontfix ? maybe there will be a backport repo after the mageia 2 release for both version

Status: RESOLVED => REOPENED
Resolution: WONTFIX => (none)

Comment 7 Dimitrios Glentadakis 2012-04-22 08:01:44 CEST
Ah sorry , i thought that Mageia 1 will not have updates after the release of Mageia 2.
Also, the latest nvidia driver 295.xx it is non compatible with the version of xserver of Mageia 1 . 
So the latest version that i have in my system to have the 3D enabled is the 290.10

Comment 9 Bert Aerts 2012-07-06 15:30:23 CEST
As I use Mageia 2 x86_64 and use the script on http://onse.fi/nvidia-mgabuild/ to generate my own rpm packages on every new nVIDIA release, I am no longer requester of nVIDIA updates in Mageia repositories...
