NVIDIA binary kernel module source

This package provides the source for the NVIDIA binary kernel modules needed by nvidia-driver in a form suitable for use by module-assistant.

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 read /usr/share/doc/nvidia-kernel-source/README.Debian.gz for building information. If you want the kernel module to be automatically installed via DKMS, install nvidia-kernel-dkms instead.

This version only supports GeForce, NVS, Quadro, RTX, Tesla, ... GPUs based on the Maxwell, Pascal, Volta, Turing, Ampere, Ada, Hopper or newer architectures. Look at the legacy driver or Tesla driver packages for older cards.

See /usr/share/doc/nvidia-kernel-source/README.txt.gz for a complete list of supported GPUs and PCI IDs.

Building the kernel modules has been tested up to Linux 6.7.
