Hello friends. I’d like to ask if any of you knows when/if Debian will finally include the nvidia-535 proprietary driver. It’s kind of a pain in the ass to install it manually and keep it updated. Thanks!
NVIDIA’s Debian repo for Cuda has more up to date GPU drivers, if you don’t wanna manually install from the .run file. Documentation here, its not reflected yet in the docs but there’s a Debian 12 repo.
thanks, I’m going to read that later and see if I can get it working

just saw on that FTP you linked that there is an entry for nvidia-535: https://metadata.ftp-master.debian.org/changelogs//non-free-firmware/n/nvidia-graphics-drivers/nvidia-graphics-drivers_535.43.02-1_changelog
But it is still on experimental repo. I guess it’s just a matter of time until it hits unstable then
I’ll be honest, if you use Linux, AMD is a must.
I never had huge problems with rolling release distros and Nvidia but recently got a AMD card and boi… Everything (hardware acceleration etc) basically worked out of the box with a very simple Arch installation… Never again going with Nvidia on Linux.
Yup. It also instantly supports even the most bizarre and unknown GPUs, like the BGA-only APU HD6310.
Backports use to get Nvidia updates, I don’t know if this is the case anymore.
