nVIDIA 275.09.07 fixes resize bug

http://www.nvidia.co.uk/object/linux-di ... er-uk.html says
"Fixed a bug that caused freezes and crashes when resizing windows in KDE 4 with desktop effects enabled using X.Org X server version 1.10 or later."

This new driver is already available on Mageia/distrib/cauldron/x86_64/media/nonfree/release/
When will it be added to backports of "1" ?

Most likely will be an official update since it fixes a very visible bug, just waiting till the Mageia 1 updates process is sussed out, should be soon now.

I'm using this driver version in cauldron.
- it works :)
- no problems with resizing windows in KDE with activated desktop
