Open Nvidia drivers

Hello, when Nvidia fresh open drivers will be available and do I need to change packages?
I still have issues with Wayland (blinking screen now) - is here any info all will be fine there?

When the v560 drivers hit the production branch they will be packaged for openSUSE. v560 is still a Beta driver and not officially released by NVIDIA as production/new feature branch.

After the drivers got officially released by NVIDIA they will be avialable for packaging for openSUSE. And then, as usual, you unly need to do a zypper dup.

So, if I update Nvidia drivers and there’s no EULA - it’s what is needed?

@psijic the open G06 driver (kmp) has been available for a long time direct from the oss repository?

The question to me? Don’t know.

@psijic well the question was to you, in that they are present in the oss repo now…

See only nvidia-driver-G06-kmp-default

nvidia-open-driver-G06-signed-kmp-default

Standard OSS repo.

They are in your output…

@psijic FWIW, I prefer the run file, but with my setup the nvidia card is for Prime Render Offload;
