Description: NVIDIA binary Xorg driver
The NVIDIA binary driver provides optimized hardware acceleration of
OpenGL/GLX/EGL/GLES applications via a direct-rendering X Server
for graphics cards using NVIDIA chip sets.
.
Please see the nvidia-kernel-dkms (nvidia-open-kernel-dkms)
or nvidia-kernel-source (nvidia-open-kernel-source) packages
for building the kernel module required by this package.
This will provide nvidia-kernel-525.147.05
(nvidia-open-kernel-525.147.05).
.
This version only supports GeForce, NVS, Quadro, RTX, Tesla, ... GPUs based on
the Maxwell, Pascal, Volta, Turing, Ampere or newer architectures.
Look at the legacy driver or Tesla driver packages for older cards.
.
See /usr/share/doc/nvidia-driver/README.txt.gz
for a complete list of supported GPUs and PCI IDs.
