See the README for more detailed instructions.įor further information please visit our forum. Hardware designs will vary from manufacturer to manufacturer, so please consult with a system's manufacturer to determine whether that particular system is compatible. Some designs incorporating supported GPUs may not be compatible with the NVIDIA Linux driver: in particular, notebook and all-in-one desktop designs with switchable (hybrid) or Optimus graphics will not work if means to disable the integrated graphics in hardware are not available. Note that the list of supported GPU products is provided to indicate which GPUs are supported by a particular driver version. Either accept that offer, edit your X configuration file manually so that the NVIDIA X driver will be used, or run nvidia-xconfig

One of the last installation steps will offer to update your X configuration file. Installation instructions: Once you have downloaded the driver, change to the directory containing the driver package and install the driver by running, as root, sh. Installing them is fairly simple, though, and so is installing key software like Vulkan.

Therefore, AMD drivers won’t work by default on a Debian system. This may interact better with the rest of your distribution's framework, and you may want to use this rather than NVIDIA's official package.Īlso note that SuSE users should read the SuSE NVIDIA Installer HOWTO before downloading the driver. Even though the AMD drivers are open source, they still depend on closed binary firmware. Note that many Linux distributions provide their own packages of the NVIDIA Linux Graphics Driver in the distribution's native package management format.
