Description Thomas Backlund 2021-11-11 20:50:20 CET 
* Added support for the following GPUs:
    * RTX A2000 12GB
    * RTX A4500
    * T400 4GB
    * T1000 8GB
    * Matrox D-Series D2450
    * Matrox D-Series D2480
    * NVIDIA A2

* Fixed a regression which prevented DisplayPort and HDMI 2.1 variable
  refresh rate (VRR) G-SYNC Compatible monitors from functioning correctly
  in variable refresh rate mode, resulting in issues such as flickering.

* Fixed a bug that can cause a kernel crash in SLI Mosaic configurations.

* Added support for the EGL_NV_robustness_video_memory_purge extension

Comment 2 Len Lawrence 2021-11-12 00:04:05 CET 
Mageia 8, x86_64
Quad Core Intel Core i7-4790
NVIDIA GM204 [GeForce GTX 970]

Installed under the latest linus kernel and rebooted smoothly with nvidia 470.86.
Rebooted and chose an earlier desktop kernel, 5.10.70-1.
At reboot the nvidia and virtualbox modules were rebuilt, virtualboxbox worked for launching a client but failed to restart a saved session (to be expected).
Installed the latest desktop kernel - scheduled update.  Not in the menu.
Ran `drakboot --boot` after login and rebooted.  OK that time.
