* debian/dkms.conf.in,
  make-use-of-the-new-uapi-framework.patch,
  replace-VM_RESERVED-with-VM_DONTEXPAND-and-VM_DONTDU.patch:
  - Add support for Linux 3.7 (LP: #1075937).
* New upstream release:
  - Fixed a bug that caused the EIZO FlexScan SX2762W
    monitor to remain blank when connected via
    DisplayPort.
  - Updated nvidia-settings to save and restore
    per-monitor color correction settings when RandR
    1.2 or later is available.
  - Fixed a bug that caused too many display devices
    to appear in the X Screen page of nvidia-settings
    when SLI is enabled.
  - Fixed a bug that caused applications to stop
    rendering or the X server to hang in Xinerama
    configurations when windows were moved, resized,
    mapped, or unmapped.
  - Fixed a bug that caused poor OpenGL performance
    on GeForce 6 and 7 PCI cards.
  - Fixed a bug in nvidia-settings that made it report
    the status of ECC configuration incorrectly.
  - Fixed a bug that caused the X server to crash if a
    display was put into DPMS off mode and subsequently
    reenabled while screen transformations are in use.
  - Fixed a bug that caused the X Resize and Rotate
    extension to be enabled when Xinerama is enabled.
    These two X extensions are incompatible and having
    them both enabled can confuse window managers such
    as KDE's kwin. RandR is now correctly disabled when
    Xinerama is enabled.
  - Fixed a bug causing OpenGL stereo applications to
    not work properly when using passive stereo modes 5
    through 9 on Quadro Fermi and newer GPUs.
  - Added support for the "Backlight" RandR output
    property for configuring the brightness of some
    notebook internal panels.
  - Fixed a bug that prevented the Ubuntu Unity launcher
    panel from unhiding (LP:# 1057000).
  - Fixed a bug that caused incorrect input
    transformation after resizing an NVIDIA X screen
    with xserver ABI 12 (xorg-server 1.12) or newer.
  - Fixed a bug that caused GLX to leak memory when
    Xinerama is enabled.
  - Fixed a regression in backlight control functionality
    on some notebook configurations.
  - Fixed a performance issue with recent Linux kernels
    when allocating and freeing system memory.
  - Fixed a bug that sometimes prevented the display
    device / X screen selection menu from being displayed
    in nvidia-settings.
  - Fixed a bug that prevented X driver gamma
    manipulation from working after a VT-switch on some
    configurations.
  - Added the option --output-file to nvidia-bug-report.sh
    to allow specifying a custom filename for the log file.
  - Fixed a hang when using OpenGL programs with some SLI
    Mosaic configurations on pre-Fermi GPUs.
  - Added sections to the Supported NVIDIA GPU Products
    list for NVS, Tesla, and VGX products.
  - Added support for the following GPUs:
    o VGX K1
    o VGX K2
    o Tesla K20c
    o Tesla K20m

* debian/nvidia-current-updates.grub-gfxpayload.in:
  - Blacklist all NVIDIA graphics cards (LP#1057093).
* New upstream release:
  - Added support for the following GPUs:
    o GeForce GTX 660
    o GeForce GTX 650
    o GeForce GT 645M
    o GeForce GTX 670MX
  - Added support for the new Quadro Sync board for Quadro
    Kepler GPUs. See the "Configuring Frame Lock and Genlock"
    chapter in the README for details.
  - Fixed an X server crash on X.Org xserver 1.13 when it is
    compiled without support for DRI2.
  - Fixed a regression that broke color controls on older X
    servers.
  - Fixed a bug that prevented panning from working correctly
    after a modeswitch on some X servers with support for
    cursor constraining.
  - Gamma ramp and colormap adjustments now apply correctly
    when screen transformations such as rotation and keystone
    correction are in use.
  - Fixed RandR per-CRTC gamma persistence across modeswitches
    and VT-switches.
  - Fixed a bug that caused the X server to sometimes hang in
    response to input events.
  - Fixed a reduction in rendering performance for core X11
    rendering on certain GPUs that occurred in the 290.series
    of releases.
  - Fixed a bug that prevented PowerMizer from working
    correctly on some boards with GDDR5 memory, such as some
    GeForce GT 240 SKUs.
  - Fixed a bug that caused OpenGL applications to not
    animate properly when a rotation or a transformation was
    applied on some older X server versions.
  - Enabled FXAA with Unified Back Buffers.
  - Fixed a bug that prevented the "Reset Hardware Defaults"
    button in the Display Settings page of nvidia-settings
    from being activated.

26. By Alberto Milone on 2012-09-19

* debian/control.in:
  - Conflict with/replace/provide nvidia-experimental-304.

25. By Alberto Milone on 2012-09-14

* debian/rules:
  - Make it possible to set the xserver ABIs in debian/substvars.
    It's all documented in the README file.

24. By Alberto Milone on 2012-09-07

* debian/control.in:
  - Conflict with/replace/provide nvidia and fglrx. This will make
    sure that other binary drivers cannot be installed at the same
    time. This is required by the new restricted drivers UI.

23. By Alberto Milone on 2012-08-30

* debian/dkms.conf.in:
  - Drop patch for linux 3.6
* debian/rules:
  - Lower the dependency on xserver-xorg-core
    (>= 2:1.10.99.901) for easier backports.

22. By Alberto Milone on 2012-08-28

* debian/rules:
  - Add support for X ABI 13.
* New upstream release (LP: #1037483):
  - Added support for the following GPUs:
    o GeForce GTX 660 Ti
    o Quadro K5000
    o Quadro K5000M
    o Quadro K4000M
    o Quadro K3000M
    o NVS 510
  - Fixed a bug that caused pre-release versions of
    X.Org xserver 1.13 to crash when certain GLX
    operations were performed, such as when starting
    Firefox.
  - Fixed a bug that caused VDPAU to hang when
    expanding the YouTube Flash Player.

21. By Alberto Milone on 2012-08-17

  - Disable support fo X ABI 13 since the driver doesn't
    seem to work well with the new X.

20. By Alberto Milone on 2012-08-07

* debian/rules:
  - Add ABIs 12 and 13.

19. By Alberto Milone on 2012-08-07

  - Hardcode X ABI to 11.
* debian/control.in:
  - Remove versioned dependency on nvidia-settings
    (LP: #1034035).
