Nvidia install: wiki vs sndirsch.github.io

[elfroggio]

I will be soon converting an almost older computer to tumbleweed. It has an G06 (3060) nvidia card.

As I was preparing, i checked the:

https://en.opensuse.org/SDB:NVIDIA_drivers

and this linked to:

Installation of NVIDIA drivers on openSUSE and SLE

Somebody mentioned that it’s the suse guy that “makes” the drivers.

The wiki says:

zypper in nvidia-open-driver-G06-signed-kmp-meta nvidia-userspace-meta-G06

while sndirsch says:

zypper in nvidia-open-driver-G06-signed-kmp-meta

Will I need the nvidia-userspace-meta-G06?

Thanks

Summary        : Meta package to select open nvidia driver in sync
Description    : 
    Meta package to select open nvidia driver in sync, i.e. trigger
    installation of nvidia-open-driver-G06-signed-kmp. Hardware
    supplements moved to this meta package. Also require
    nvidia-userspace-meta-G06 in sync in case where --no-recommends
    is being used.

So nvidia-userspace-meta-G06 will be installed anyway when needed and it does no harm to explicitly specify it.
