the new NVIDIA 610 driver fixed <b>STALKER 2<\/b> crashes and GPU hang in <b>Forza Horizon 6<\/b>, when running the games in Linux using a particular VKD3D-Proton <code>descriptor_heap<\/code> feature.<\/p>\n<p>It fixed the issue that some textures are wrapped incorrectly in <b>Assetto Corsa Evo 0.6.x<\/b>, and fixed <b>Monster Hunter Wilds<\/b> crashes at the main menu because the NVIDIA graphics driver reports that the GPU stopped responding.<\/p>\n<p>It as well fixed hangs or corruption problems in the <b>007 First Light<\/b> and <b>Assassin&#8217;s Creed Origins<\/b>, as well as  black screens issue in <b>Total War: Warhammer III<\/b> with 595 driver.<\/p>\n<p>The driver also fixed an issue that could cause application hangs or a black screen in several games,

incorrect results, when using <code>__VK_ENABLE_DEVICE_GROUPS=1<\/code> that treats multiple physical GPUs as a group useful for multi-GPU rendering, high-performance computing, or certain advanced graphics applications.<\/p>\n<p>It as well fixed a <b>suspend\/resume failure<\/b> issue caused by Runtime D3 (RTD3), the power management feature that allows a device (such as a discrete NVIDIA GPU) to completely power down when it&#8217;s not being used.<\/p>\n<p>And, it fixed the a <b>compatibility issue with Kernel 7.0<\/b> in NVIDIA 595.71.05, which caused blank screen when switching to a text console (TTY\/virtual console) after loading the driver.<\/p>\n<p>Other changes in NVIDIA 610.57.04 include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Fix the DKMS kernel module build failure when using NVIDIA-provided installer.<\/li>\n<li>Fix Vulkan applications stutter when several CPU threads were waiting for the same GPU synchronization event.<\/li>\n<li>Fix blank screen in X11 apps after changing display modes (resolution, refresh rate, monitor configuration) when they used the X Present extension.<\/li>\n<li>Fix possible performance problems, caused by incorrectly moved some OpenGL buffers into RAM.<\/li>\n<li>Fix that X-Plane could display broken graphics (corrupted images) when running on NVIDIA workstation-class GPUs.<\/li>\n<li>Fix X11 graphics driver bug where using old-style GLX indirect OpenGL rendering could crash the entire X server.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Get NVIDIA 610.57.04<\/h3>\n<p>The official release note as well as the <code>.run<\/code> installer for the new NVIDIA
