- Update to version 545.29.02
  * Added experimental HDMI 10 bits per component support; enable by
    loading nvidia-modeset with `hdmi_deepcolor=1`.
  * Added support for the CTM, DEGAMMA_LUT, and GAMMA_LUT DRM-KMS CRTC
    properties. These are used by features such as the "Night Light"
    feature in GNOME and the "Night Color" feature in KDE, when they
    are used as Wayland compositors.
  * Added CERTIFIED-quality support for GeForce and Workstation GPUs
    to open kernelmodules. Please see the "Open Linux Kernel Modules"
    chapter in the README for details.
  * Added initial experimental support for runtime D3 (RTD3) power
    management on Desktop GPUs. Please see the 'PCI-Express Runtime D3
    (RTD3) Power Management' chapter in the README for more details.
  * Added support for the EGL_ANDROID_native_fence_sync EGL extension
    and the VK_EXTERNAL_SEMAPHORE_HANDLE_TYPE_SYNC_FD_BIT and
    VK_EXTERNAL_FENCE_HANDLE_TYPE_SYNC_FD_BIT Vulkan external handle
    types when the nvidia-drm kernel module is loaded with the modeset=1
    parameter.
  * Added experimental support for framebuffer consoles provided by
    nvidia-drm. On kernels that implement drm_fbdev_generic_setup and
    drm_aperture_remove_conflicting_pci_framebuffers, nvidia-drm will
    install a framebuffer console when loaded with both `modeset=1` and
    `fbdev=1` kernel module parameters. This will replace the Linux boot
    console driven by a system framebuffer driver such as efifb or vesafb.
    Note that when an nvidia-drm framebuffer console is enabled, unloading
    nvidia-drm will cause the screen to turn off.
  * Updated nvidia-installer to allow installing the driver while an existing
    NVIDIA driver is already loaded.
  * Added support for virtual reality displays, such as the SteamVR
    platform, on Wayland compositors that support DRM leasing. Support
    requires xwayland version 22.1.0 and wayland-protocols version 1.22, 
    or later. Tested on sway, minimum version 1.7 with wlroots version 0.15,
    and also on Kwin, minimum version 5.24.
    Note: Before xwayland 23.2, there is a known issue with HDMI displays
    where the headset will fail to start a second time after closing SteamVR.
    This can be worked around by unplugging and replugging in the headset.
  * Fixed a bug that prevented VRR (Variable Refresh Rate) from working with
    Wayland.
  * Added support to the NVIDIA VDPAU driver for running in Xwayland.
    Please refer to the "Xwayland support in VDPAU" section of the README
    for further details.
  * Added libnvidia-gpucomp.so to the driver package. This is a helper
    library used for GPU shader compilation.
  * Removed libnvidia-vulkan-producer.so from the driver package. This
    helper library is no longer needed by the Wayland WSI.
  * Fixed a bug that intermittently caused the display to freeze when
    resuming from suspend on some Ada GPUs.
  * Fixed a bug that could cause monitors to flicker when the performance
    state changes on Turing GPUs.
  * Added support for HDR signaling via the HDR_OUTPUT_METADATA and
    Colorspace per-connector DRM properties when nvidia-drm is loaded with
    the `modeset=1` parameter.
  * Added support for PRIME render offload to Vulkan Wayland WSI.
  * Fixed a bug that could cause modes to fail validation when Option
   "ModeValidation" "NoExtendedGpuCapabilitiesCheck" is specified in
    xorg.conf.
  * Fixed a bug which could cause some DisplayPort monitors to flicker.
- added fbdev=1 option for nvidia-drm module, which gives us a proper
  framebuffer console now ...
- nosimplefb kernel option no longer needed with usage of nvidia-drm's
  fbdev=1 option
- removed dropped 64bit libnvidia-vulkan-producer from filelist
- added new 32/64 bit libnvidia-gpucomp to; which is now needed
  thru dlopen() by GL components like libnvidia-eglcore, 
  libnvidia-glcore and libnvidia-rtcore)
