Er staat in dit artikel dezelfde fout als in de vorige. Kepler wordt niet langer ondersteund.

[Wouterie]

Yep, mijn kaartje krijgt inderdaad geen updates meer.

Stuur @Drobanir even een DM hierover.

Dit is het enige open issue dat voor mij relevant is, maar staat voor mijn gevoel nu al zo lang open:

[YouTube]: Video playback stutters while scrolling down the YouTube page. [3129705]

De bug zit eigenlijk in Chromium, die switched de hele tijd van overlay.

Hoe is dit een relevant issue? Kijk jij youtube filmpjes terwijl je weg scrolled van het filmpje?

[Adm.Spock]

Soms is het beeld niet het belangrijkste, maar vooral wat er verteld wordt, en dan kun je ondertussen ook alvast door de reacties bladeren.

Kan me er zeker voorstellen dat het een vervelend issue is.

Is hier ook nog een standaard versie van deze driver? Of kan je alleen de dch versie krijgen?
