GeForce 275.27 beta driver brings GTX 560 support

Nvidia has published a new beta graphics driver to accompany the arrival of its GeForce GTX 560, allowing you to take advantage of enhancements and fixes ahead of WHQL certification. Although the company mentions performance improvements for both GeForce GTX 400 and 500 series cards, it only cites specific gains for the GTX 560 and 580. The figures below were obtained by comparing today's v275.27 beta release against last month's v270.61 WHQL drivers.

The release notes also mention a 12% increase in gaming performance for dual-core processors during certain CPU-limited situations. Game-related single-GPU bug fixes include issues that caused blurriness in Resident Evil 5, as well as flickering in Empire: Total War and Battlefield: Bad Company 2. Meanwhile, Nvidia has resolved glitches in Homefront, World in Conflict: Soviet Assault, Lost Planet: Extreme Condition, and Crysis when running them SLIed GPUs.

Mobile: Windows Vista/7 32-bit | Windows Vista/7 64-bit

The 275 family represents a siginficant update over the present 270 drivers with features such as silent automatic SLI, multi-GPU and antialiasing profile updates. This is in addition to the optional "Nvidia Update" feature in the 270 line, which notifies you about new driver releases. There are also various desktop scaling and 3D Vision features, including a new interface for the former and more profiles for the latter. You'll find more details on our download pages above.

On Our Desk - Mionix Propus 380

As you can imagine, we get lots of natty little bits and pieces sent into the bit-tech offices. Annoyingly, though, much of it is just a little too small or a little too silly to write about in a full page review. As a result, I?m trying to resurrect the On Our Desk series of articles that we used to cover all these little bits of gadgetry.

So without further ado I?ll tell you about the Mionix Propus 380 mouse mat, on which my CM Storm Inferno has been happily sitting for the last few days.

The first feature that grabbed me about the Propus 380 is that it looks good. It was actually its unusual shape and sleek, unfussy design that prompted me to pick it out from the pile of gaming mouse mats we?ve got sitting in the labs in the first place; it certainly looks like it means business.

On Our Desk - Mionix Propus 380

Once out of the packaging, I was pleasantly surprised by the build quality on show. The edges of the Propus 380 are very precisely cut, with no rough edges in sight. The upper tracking surface is also very firmly bonded to the rubber base of the mat; it certainly doesn't feel like the Propus 380 would suffer from the kind of delaminating or edge-peeling you may have seen on older mouse mats.

The surface of the mat is made from extremely fine-grained plastic, results in some very quick mouse movements. In fact, I was actually able to move my mouse almost too quickly compared to the cloth covered mat that the Propus 380 replaced, with very little drag or friction between the mouse and mat. Once I was used to it, though, the lack of friction meant that my mouse movement felt very precise, and that fatigue was less of a problem during long gaming sessions.

Measuring 380 x 260mm, the mat is wider than it is tall, but this means there?s plenty of room for large sweeping movements if you run your mouse with low sensitivity. If you don?t need all that width, though, then you can rotate the mat through 90 degrees. What's more, in this orientation, the indents in the upper and lower edge of the mat help it to butt up nearly with your keyboard.

On Our Desk - Mionix Propus 380

If you?re into your LAN gaming, then the fact that the Propus 380 doesn?t roll up could be an issue. It does have a degree of bend in it, but it'll crease if you push it too far. For most people, though, this is unlikely to be a problem, and it also means the edges of the mat won?t curl with time.

Of course, a gaming orientated mouse mat is a luxury; most decent mice these days will track quite happily without any mouse mat at all. The Propus 380 is a great piece of kit, though. It feels well made, and has a surface that provides very smooth and quick tracking for a laser mouse. At £17 it couldn?t be called cheap, but at least you feel like you?re getting £17 worth of kit; it?ll definitely be staying on my desk for the foreseeable future.

A Virtual View beneath the Skin

Microsoft researchers have developed a handheld device that gives physical-therapy patients a virtual view beneath the skin to see what an injury looks like inside. The hope is that this will make them a little more eager to keep doing their therapies. 

"People are notoriously bad at sticking to their physical therapy regimens," says Amy Karlson, of Microsoft Research's Computational User Experiences Group in Redmond, Washington. Between 30 and 50 percent of patients with chronic conditions fail to comply with their recommended therapies, she says. As a result, conditions can take longer to heal or can get even worse.

Karlson says the more information that patients have about their injuries, the more likely they are to comply with physical therapy regimens. The new tool, called AnatOnMe, aims to give patients that extra bit of information. The device projects an image of the underlying bone structure, muscle tissue, tendons, or nerves onto the skin, giving patients a better understanding of the injury, and of what they need to do to help the healing process, says Karlson.

The prototype device comes in two parts. The first contains a handheld, or pico, projector, an ordinary digital camera, and an infrared camera. The second contains a laser pointer and the control buttons. "The technology is somewhat low-tech," says Karlson, who presented the device this week in Vancouver at CHI 2011, the Association for Computing Machinery's Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems.

Instead of using a complicated autocorrection system to map the image of the internal injury precisely onto the patient's exterior, the therapist simply points the projector and lines it up by eye. And with the prototype, the images displayed are not actually taken from scans of the patients but come from stock graphical images used to show one of six different types of injury.

Even so, it appears to be very effective, says Karlson. Controlled experiments of the device carried out by two physical therapists suggest that the device encourages patients to stick to their therapies.

A doctor or therapist could also use AnatOnMe to project images onto a nearby wall. The user interface also works this way, says Karlson, with the menu options projected onto a surface. Options are selected using the laser pointer, which is detected by the infrared camera.

E. Anne Reicherter, a member of the American Physical Therapy Association at the University of Maryland-Baltimore School of Medicine, says physical therapy compliance is a major problem, partly because it usually involves exercise, and partly because it involves changing a habit or forgoing a behavior that may have caused the injury in the first place.

"But most patients are very interested in understanding what's going on in their body, so something like this that can visually assist them in truly understanding would be a real benefit," says Reicherter. Although, she adds, a certain portion of the population, particularly older patients, may find such visceral detail a bit of a turn off.

Schwarzenegger Talk Becomes an Admission

Mr. Schwarzenegger?s advisers had heard it. So had top aides to Mr. Davis, whom Mr. Schwarzenegger would go on to unseat. But in the closing days of what was a circus of a campaign, the rumors got pushed aside as Mr. Schwarzenegger dealt with a barrage of seemingly more credible allegations that he had groped and molested women during his years as a movie star, charges that Ms. Shriver battled back forcefully, contributing in large part to his victory.

In fact, Mr. Schwarzenegger acknowledged on Tuesday, he had fathered a child with a member of his household staff a few years before running for office, a secret that he said he hid from his wife and that aides said he kept from them. Through much of her pregnancy and for the eight years that Mr. Schwarzenegger served as one of the highest-profile governors in the nation, the woman continued to work in the couple?s home. Some of their friends, looking back, said they now believe the child was an occasional presence in the house in the gated community at the end of Mandeville Canyon Road.

That deception by Mr. Schwarzenegger ended Monday night when the governor, responding to an inquiry from The Los Angeles Times, released a statement acknowledging his child. Ms. Shriver ? his wife of 25 years, a former television news correspondent and a member of the Kennedy family ? issued her own statement Tuesday reflecting what her friends described as the devastating and utterly shocking collapse of a marriage that had captured national attention. Ms. Shriver had moved out of the house and into a Beverly Hills hotel earlier this year.

?As a mother, my concern is for the children,? she said. ?I ask for compassion, respect and privacy as my children and I try to rebuild our lives and heal. I will have no further comment.?

The family scandal unfolded in real time on social networks. One of their sons, Patrick, 17, posted his distress on his Twitter account, though he presented his name as Patrick Shriver, rather than Patrick Schwarzenegger. ?Some days you feel? terrible, he wrote, borrowing lyrics from a Fort Minor song, including a profanity to convey that feeling. He added, ?Some days you want to quit and just be normal for a bit, yet I love my family till death do us apart.?

His sister Katherine, who is 21, wrote: ?This is definitely not easy but I appreciate your love and support as I begin to heal and move forward.?

The disclosure set off a clamor in a city that has always been intrigued by the celebrity wattage produced by this marriage of show business and politics. Reporters and camera crews crowded around the looming stone gates near the couple?s home, craning for a glimpse of the former governor. Mr. Schwarzenegger and Ms. Shriver found themselves back in the sights of two Web sites that have feasted on their marriage before: TMZ and Gawker.

?The Schwarzenegger love child scandal has arrived,? Gawker announced.

Associates of Mr. Schwarzenegger and Ms. Shriver, pointing to the request for privacy, offered only scant details. The child was said to be a boy, about 14 years old. Several friends said the mother was working around the house, pregnant, at the same time that Ms. Shriver was pregnant with the youngest of the couple?s four children, Christopher, who is 13. The woman and the child did not live in the house.

By every account, Mr. Schwarzenegger made no mention of the situation to Ms. Shriver or to the team of political consultants he brought in during the 2003 recall election against Mr. Davis, and in the re-election campaign in 2006.

Friends of both Mr. Schwarzenegger and Ms. Shriver expressed astonishment not only at his actions, but also that he had eluded detection by the public and his family over the course of his very public life. Mr. Schwarzenegger told his wife about the affair only late last year, at the end of his public service career, and shortly after the mother of his son left the job with severance after working for the family for 20 years.

Adam Nagourney reported from Los Angeles, and Jennifer Steinhauer from Washington. Reporting was contributed by Michael Cieply, Jennifer Medina, Ian Lovett and Ana Facio Contreras from Los Angeles.

Facebook email rolls out, already adopted by hundreds of millions

Facebook?s email addresses have been rolled out, with users able to opt-in via the Messages tab once logged in to the service. Facebook announced its new messaging product in November, with roll out beginning in February and now ?Hundreds of millions of people are already upgraded,? a Facebook spokesperson told us.

Facebook?s own description of Facebook email is a bit wishy-washy, and it?s hard to figure out why they?d implement something that?s not as powerful as real email and not as simple as Messages ? and yet for seemingly filling a middle-of-the-road gap, just isn?t very good. The idea behind it however is to allow people to ?share with friends over email, whether they?re on Facebook or not.? So essentially being able to receive a Facebook message from a friend who doesn?t necessarily have to be on Facebook ? which of course is a fine opportunity for Facebook to convince that friend that he/she should be using the site.

The odd thing there though is why would someone know their friends Facebook email address but not their personal one? Presumably it?s just a perfect opportunity for spammers to check peoples profile URLs and send them Facebook emails.

The service seems to have some bugs, or just plain design flaws. Facebook said it wanted to simplify email, but it may have gone too far: on first opening a new message sent from an external account I had to click a link to ?unhide? the actual body text, and on subsequent visits to the message the link was gone altogether, with the content impossible to access.

Facebook?s goal is to become the sole hub for people?s digital interpersonal communication, beyond the level of ubiquity it enjoys now as a social network.

99.7% of Android phones leak user account credentials

According to a report by German researchers, some 99.7% of Android devices in circulation are vulnerable to an attack that could compromise sensitive data transmitted over a wireless network connection. The hole reportedly stems from a flaw in Google's ClientLogin authentication protocol, which verifies communication between Android devices and applications.

To use ClientLogin, an app requests an authentication token (authToken) from the Google service by passing an account name and password over an HTTPS connection. The returned authToken can be used for any subsequent request to the service API and in addition to remaining valid for up to two weeks, it's not bound to any session or device-specific information.

Those attributes wouldn't be an issue if attackers couldn't obtain an authToken, but that isn't the case. The article notes that many applications can send such data over an unencrypted HTTP connection, making it easy for unsavory types to obtain the authToken with software utilities such as Wireshark, which can then be used to access your information.

"For instance, the adversary can gain full access to the calendar, contacts information, or private web albums of the respective Google user. This means that the adversary can view, modify or delete any contacts, calendar events, or private pictures. This is not limited to items currently being synced but affects all items of that user," the researchers explained.

Wireshark showing ClientLogin authToken in data API request to Picasa Web Albums

Besides stealing the compromised user's information, a hacker could also target the victim's contacts. "An adversary could perform subtle changes without the user noticing. For example, an adversary could change the stored email address of the victim's boss or business partners hoping to receive sensitive or confidential material pertaining to their business."

Because authTokens last for up to two weeks, the report noted that an attacker could collect them on a large scale with an insecure wireless access point and use them later from an entirely different location. As such, the researchers are urging Google to limit the lifetime of authTokens in addition to rejecting ClientLogin-based requests from insecure connections.

The vulnerability is present in all Android versions prior to 2.3.4 (Gingerbread), which is only available for a handful of Android devices. If you can't update to 2.3.4, the researchers recommend avoiding public Wi-Fi networks or at the very least disabling automatic synchronization and letting your device forget an open network that you previously connected to.

Christie Says No to 2012 Bid, but G.O.P. Keeps Calling

Not that he wants to.

Despite months of insisting that he will not enter the race, the New Jersey governor has become an increasingly busy presence on its fringes. Conservative politicians and talk-show hosts are still clamoring for him to jump in, and he has agreed to meet this month with a group of fund-raisers from Iowa who want to persuade him.

While Republican consultants say he would be a leading contender, and journalists keep asking whether he will run, Mr. Christie keeps finding new and ever more provocative ways to say no. The Republicans who have considered running want his imprimatur, lining up for dinner dates at the governor?s mansion in Princeton.

Candidate or not, Mr. Christie is a force to reckon with in the contest, someone who political analysts say could influence his party?s nomination, or make a splash as a choice for running mate ? another prospect he rules out. The governor shows no sign of fading into the background, and by his own admission, he loves the attention.

?I?m a kid from Jersey who has people asking him to run for president,? he said last week in a radio interview, laughing off the idea that he had ?become tired and annoyed? by the subject coming up time and again. ?I?m thrilled by it. I just don?t want to do it.?

His denials are striking enough to stoke the fire, generating still more media coverage. He once told reporters that ?short of suicide, I don?t really know what I?d have to do to convince you people that I?m not running,? and on another occasion told an interviewer that while he would not run, ?I already know I could win.?

Last week, he posed a tart comparison with his Democratic predecessor, observing that ?a few years ago, nobody from Iowa was coming to New Jersey to beg Jon Corzine to run for president of the United States.?

Since January, Mr. Christie has played dinner host to a string of potential presidential candidates: former Gov. Mitt Romney of Massachusetts (who followed with a $25,000 contribution to the New Jersey Republican Party), former Gov. Tim Pawlenty of Minnesota and Gov. Haley Barbour of Mississippi, before Mr. Barbour decided not to enter the race. A date with another, former Gov. Jon M. Huntsman Jr. of Utah, was scheduled for last week but had to be postponed, and there has been talk of a meeting with the former House speaker Newt Gingrich.

Governors, who usually control their state party machinery, are always courted by presidential candidates, particularly in the states with the earliest contests, like Iowa and New Hampshire. But for contenders to make the pilgrimage to New Jersey ? not a pivotal primary state ? with aides in tow, for face-to-face sessions with a governor long before any votes are cast, is something else.

?There hasn?t been any parallel to this, not in my memory,? said David P. Redlawsk, a political science professor at Rutgers University. ?He?s a hot commodity, and the candidates clearly think his endorsement would be significant. He can attract crowds and raise a lot of money. I wouldn?t be surprised if they?re thinking about him as a potential V.P. candidate.?

But the meetings have included no vice presidential talk, or even much direct appealing for the governor?s support, according to people who have attended some of his sessions with candidates, and who discussed them on the condition of anonymity so as not to alienate those involved.

They say Mr. Christie listens to each candidate?s presentation, and asks questions about policy and political strategy. And though the governor, a former federal prosecutor, has said that presidential hopefuls must be able to handle tough questioning, these people say the tone of these exchanges is relaxed.

His advisers say that while Mr. Christie relishes the attention, he does not court it.

?I don?t think people understand how much more often we say no to invitations than we say yes,? said Mike DuHaime, the governor?s chief political consultant.

Schwarzenegger Fathered Child With Employee

Mr. Schwarzenegger issued a statement Tuesday morning acknowledging the events, and said he informed Ms. Shriver of the affair after he finished his term in office in January. The baby was born before Mr. Schwarzenegger was elected in a special election in 2003.

The revelations were first reported Monday night by The Los Angeles Times

?After leaving the Governor?s office I told my wife about this event, which occurred over a decade ago,? he said in a statement. ?I understand and deserve the feelings of anger and disappointment among my friends and family. There are no excuses and I take full responsibility for the hurt I have caused. I have apologized to Maria, my children and my family. I am truly sorry.?

Mr. Schwarzenegger?s associates said that the employee, who was not identified, moved out of his mansion and that she has since retired with a severance. They said that Mr. Schwarzenegger was paying full child support.

The report comes after Mr. Schwarzenegger and Ms. Shriver, who have four children together, announced that they were separating after 25 years of marriage. They were a couple who commanded widespread attention because of their unusual pedigree: Mr. Schwarzenegger, a Republican, is a former movie actor and body builder. Ms. Shriver is a member of the Kennedy family who gave up a career as a television broadcaster in deference to Mr. Schwarzenegger?s desire to enter politics.

In her statement Tuesday, Ms. Shriver asked for privacy.

?As a mother, my concern is for the children,? she said. ?I ask for compassion, respect and privacy as my children and I try to rebuild our lives and heal. I will have no further comment.?

The couple at the time asked friends not to discuss the situation with members of the media, pleading for privacy. Mr. Schwarzenegger ? who since leaving office has announced his plans to go back into the movie industry ? made a similar plea Tuesday morning.

?I ask that the media respect my wife and children through this extremely difficult time,? he said. ?While I deserve your attention and criticism my family does not.?

Mr. Schwarzenegger has continued to live in a gated mansion he owns at the end of a long road in Brentwood. Ms. Shriver moved to a hotel.

The Los Angeles Times did not identify the member of the household staff. But the newspaper said she had worked for the family for 20 years before retiring this year. The paper quoted her as saying that she had received a severance payment and that she had ?left on good terms with them.?

An Interview with Lexalytics: Understanding text analytics technology

A few weeks ago I received a pitch saying that Lexalytics, a B2B provider of sentiment and text analytics technology, powering brand and reputation management tools such as Radian6 and Scout Labs, had recently upgraded their Salience product by digesting all of Wikipedia to come up with their patent-pending technology, Concept Matrices. This product, they said, enables us to understand the complex relationships between words and their meaning, which provides valuable analysis to brands.

Thinking this sounded pretty cool, and wanting to brush up on my knowledge of Concept Matrices, I reached out to Jeff Catlin, the CEO of Lexalytics for a short interview.

CBM: In layman?s terms what exactly is sentiment and text analytics technology?

Jeff Catlin: Pick some text, any text. And as if by magic, we?ll tell you who is being discussed, what the conversation is about, and if it?s positive or negative for those involved. This gets used by all kinds of different organizations ? to see what people like, what they don?t, how well a product is working, if they need to put more beef on the hamburger, and, of course, by Big Brother to See If You Are Planning A Terrorist Attack.

On that note ? don?t say anything on Facebook or Twitter or any other place on the Internet that you don?t want your grandmother and the government to read.

CBM: How did you get into this fascinating field?

JC: Having been involved in the search business before now; this is a natural next-step to search. Rather than searching for a word, you can start looking for the concepts you actually mean.

CBM: Salience product? Digesting Wikipedia? What?s going on?! How long did it take you to marinate on all of those web pages?

JC: Salience is our software that is integrated into various other systems. Much like man, we are not an island, and our software goes into other systems, systems with lots of text where someone wants to understand what?s happening without reading all of it and taking notes.

Digesting Wikipedia, well that?s the future. Our next release is all about understanding what people are talking about, and what better source to gain that understanding than the world?s largest encyclopedia? We?ve swallowed all of Wikipedia, so that we can understand that a ?cat? is closely related to a ?lion? and that it?s only very loosely related to a ?walrus? (both animals). This sort of knowledge will help us truly understand what people are looking for when they ask questions.

CBM: Give us a simple man?s metaphor for Concept Matrices? Words, meanings, are we talking poetry here? When I say wave, will it know undertow? When I say valley, will it know mountain?

JC: You hit the nail on the head with your examples. When I think of oil, there are other concepts that go along with ?oil? ? ?petroleum?, ?gasoline? ?natural gas?; and more tenuously related concepts like ?solar power? and ?wind?. Wikipedia has these relationships implicitly and explicitly stated, and we?re using these relationships to associate concepts like ?cereal? to concepts like ?rice? as well as concepts like ?Frosted Flakes?.

CBM: So one day when I?m thinking of healthy food, will my networked refrigerator beep saying that my raw food breakfast is ready? What does the future of this technology look like in every day life? What are its greatest benefits?

JC: A true artificial intelligence requires a number of things ? it requires the ability to understand sound, and know that it?s speech. It requires the ability to see lines and understand that they?re text. It requires the ability to take the words and the meaning of the words and make meaningful, useful connections between the concepts.

There are myriad companies working on each individual chunk of producing an artificial intelligence. Few of them have that as their explicit goal (as there are great intermediate uses for doing something like, say, turning speech into text; or text into meaning).

That?s the grand goal.

But, in the interim, being able to tell your fridge that you want breakfast food when it?s dinner time, have it understand what?s in there, and then suggest that you go out to Denny?s because all you have is ketchup and leftover Chinese food; that?s a very real possibility. In order to get there, your fridge has to understand what ?breakfast? is, what food is generally associated with it, be able to cross match to potential recipes, and then look up on the map local restaurants that have food that could be classified as breakfast.

We?re not so far from that.

Gaming 26 - The Showman's Bag

Posted on 13th May 2011 at 12:17 by Podcast with 16 comments

This week Paul and Joe were joined by plughead.net founder and former PC Zone writer David Brown. First up on the agenda was the continuing PSN outage, and how the continuing lack of service is starting to affect games developers.

We also attempted to talk about the Witcher 2, but somehow we ended up on the topic of DLC and, unsurprisingly, Mass Effect 2. Joe also got a chance to talk about his experiences with Star Wars: The Old Republic, and why he thought the game deserved the savaging that he gave it.

Finally, we also got a chance to put a few of your questions to David who discussed everything from the future of print publishing to the pressure that games publishers and developers put on members of the games press.


As always, we've also set up our weekly competition too, the lucky winner of which will walk away with a Roccat Vire Gaming Headset. The headset weighs only 15g and comes complete with a carry bag and rubberised ergonomic earplugs.

As ever, the bit-tech hardware podcast features music by Brad Sucks, and was recorded on Shure microphones. You can download the podcast direct, listen in-browser or subscribe through iTunes using the links below. Also, be sure to let us know your thoughts about the discussion in the forums.
