Discussion tracked in https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1242181
On appropriate GPUs we already install NVIDIA's open driver by default and add the NVIDIA graphics driver repository. But we don't install the needed userspace drivers. So the system continues to use nouveau driver without acceleration.
I received a request to change that (boo#1242095). Currently I have no idea how this could be implemented.
We would need to run this once the NVIDIA graphics driver repository has been installed.
version=$(rpm -qa --queryformat '%{VERSION}\n' nvidia-open-driver-G06-signed-kmp-default | cut -d "_" -f1 | sort -u | tail -n 1) zypper in nvidia-video-G06 == ${version} nvidia-compute-utils-G06 == ${version}
Metadata Update from @lkocman: - Issue set to the milestone: 16.0
NVIDIA repo enablement for 16.0 https://build.opensuse.org/requests/1276831
Can we fix the driver package names so that they make sense? The current naming does not match anything upstream NVIDIA does.
On behalf of Stefan Dirsch:
Our package names is the result of a collaboration between nvidia developers and SUSE."
