NVIDIA driver 545.29.02 out for Linux plus other releases due to security issues

if someone tries the deepcolor mode out could they report their experiences? Probably works best in Wayland.

Still loads of Whales left in the ocean to keep the SC train going.

I wonder how it runs on SteamDeck?

Well you can enable FSR3 on any game under Windows however there are currently 2 major issues. (preview driver)
