NVIDIA proprietary driver release 435.21

NVIDIA Company presented first release of new stable branch of proprietary driver NVIDIA 435.21. The driver is available for Linux (ARM, x86_64), FreeBSD (x86_64) and Solaris (x86_64).

Among the changes:

  • Added support for PRIME technology for offloading Vulkan and OpenGL+GLX rendering operations to other GPUs (PRIME Render Offload).
  • Added "Digital Vibrance" to nvidia-settings for GPUs based on the Turing microarchitecture, which alters color rendering to improve image contrast in games.
  • Added experimental support for dynamic power management mechanism D3 (RTD3) for notebook GPUs based on the Turing microarchitecture.
  • Removed OpenGL library variants that do not work through GLVND (GL Vendor Neutral Dispatch Library, a software dispatcher that redirects commands from a 3D application to one or another OpenGL implementation, allowing Mesa and NVIDIA drivers to coexist).
