Package: nvidia-driver (390.87-8~bpo9+1) [non-free]

[ Source: nvidia-graphics-drivers  ]

NVIDIA metapackage

This metapackage depends on the NVIDIA binary driver and libraries that provide optimized hardware acceleration of OpenGL/GLX/EGL/GLES/Vulkan applications via a direct-rendering X Server.

Please see the nvidia-kernel-dkms or nvidia-kernel-source packages for building the kernel module required by this package. This will provide nvidia-kernel-390.87.

This version only supports GeForce, Quadro, NVS, Tesla, ... GPUs based on the Fermi, Kepler, Maxwell, or newer architectures. Look at the legacy packages for older cards.

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

Building the kernel module has been tested up to Linux 4.20.
