NVIDIA has announced the release of its latest Linux x64 display driver, version 570.169. This update addresses critical issues that affected system stability and application performance. Specifically, it fixes a kernel use-after-free bug that occurred on pre-Turing GPUs, which could lead to system crashes or instability. Additionally, the driver resolves a problem that caused 32-bit x86 applications to crash when using the dlopen() function on recent builds of the GNU C Library (glibc).

This release is part of NVIDIA's ongoing commitment to improving the performance and reliability of their drivers for Linux systems. Users are encouraged to update to this version to benefit from the fixes and enhancements provided.
