Added support for the following new GPUs:

· GeForce GTX 260
· GeForce GTX 280
· GeForce 9800 GTX+
· GeForce 9800 GT
· GeForce 9700M GTS
· GeForce 9500 GT
· GeForce 8100P
· nForce 780a SLI
· nForce 750a SLI
· Quadro FX 770M
· Quadro NVS 160M
· Quadro NVS 150M

· Improved support for RENDER masks, as well as RENDER repeating modes and transformations, for video memory pixmaps.
· Added accelerated support for RENDER convolution filters for video memory pixmaps on GeForce 8, 9 and GTX GPUs.
· Improved support for RENDER operations with the same source and destination; this should performance in some situations, e.g. when dragging Plasma applets in KDE4.
· Improved GPU video memory management coordination between the NVIDIA X driver and OpenGL implementation; this should improve performance with e.g. the KDE4 OpenGL compositing manager.
· Added an AllowSHMPixmaps X configuration option, which can be used to prevent applications from using shared memory pixmaps; the latter may cause some optimizations in the NVIDIA X driver to be disabled.
· Fixed a text rendering performance regression that affected GeForce 6 and 7 series GPUs.
· Fixed a regression that caused the Auto SLI X option setting to not enable SLI.
· Fixed a bug that caused system hangs when using the NV-CONTROL interface to change GPU clock frequencies.
· Added support for DisplayPort display devices (including 30-bit devices).
· Resolved various stability problems on GeForce 8, 9 and GTX GPUs, as well as some GeForce 6 and 7 PCI-E GPUs.
· Fixed a bug that resulted in GPU errors when changing the TwinView display configuration while using Compiz.
· Further improved the error recovery paths taken in case of GPU command stream corruption.
· Updated mode validation, in cases when no EDID is detected, such that 1024x768 @ 60Hz and 800x600 @ 60Hz are allowed, rather than just 640x480 @ 60Hz.
· Removed an old workaround that caused incorrect Xinerama information to be reported after enabling a second TwinView display.
· Fixed corruption when using SLI in SFR mode with OpenGL-based composite managers.
· Fixed the subpicture component order reported by the NVIDIA X drivers XvMC implementation.
· Added a workaround for broken EDIDs provided by some Acer AL1512 monitors.
· Fixed a bug that caused GLXBadDrawable errors to be generated when running more than one OpenGL application with anti-aliasing enabled on GeForce 6 and 7 GPUs, e.g. wine.
· Fixed a problem that could result in IRQs being disabled on some multi-GPU SMP configurations.
· Worked around cache flushing problems (on some Linux kernels) that caused corruption and stability problems.
· Added experimental support for PCI-E MSI.
· Fixed a bug that resulted in AGP FW/SBA settings and overrides being applied incorrectly when using the Linux kernels AGP GART driver.
· Improved compatibility with recent Linux 2.6 kernels.
· Updated the X driver to consider /sys/class/power_supply when determining the AC power state.
