NVIDIA 570.153.02 driver released for Linux with a couple fixes

NVIDIA have released driver version 570.153.02, a new bug-fix release for their current main stable driver version for Linux gamers. In case you missed it: back in late April, NVIDIA revealed a new security flaw in their drivers so you’re going to want to make sure you’re up to date.

This is a small bug-fix release only, here’s the changes:

  • Fixed a bug that could cause OpenGL applications and compositors to stall when using NVIDIA as a PRIME Display Offload sink (“Reverse PRIME”), potentially resulting in a black screen.
  • Fixed a bug that led to increasing memory usage in X11 OpenGL and Vulkan applications after suspend/resume cycles.

Their most recent new-feature Beta release was with the 575.51.02 driver back in mid-April.

NVIDIA don’t give any set schedule for when the next release will be for either their stable or Beta series.
