Correction to above:
Option #1 is preferable as I don't know if installing updates down the road
for Option #2 would cause libnvidia-cfg1 to be installed. I assume it will

I was able to finally track down this issue. The issue is due to the
32bit packages being installed if you have 'sudo dpkg --add-architecture
i386'. If you do, 'sudo apt install nvidia-legacy-390xx-driver' will
install libnvidia-cfg1 (which is an nvidia 460 component) that causes the

This is definitely a misconfiguration on my part. I’m trying to track down

Maybe that’ll save others some frustration if it’s just a missing package
or similar.
I take that back. It worked fine on a Debian 11 machine with a GTX 460. I
tried today on my other machine with Debian 11 and a GT 630 and ran into
this issue again. I’m going to try to determine the real cause on the same
machine the GTX 460 works on.
Please keep this open. My workaround in the
I confirmed this also happens in Testing (bookworm) aside from it pulling
in Nvidia 470 packages instead. I tested this on the same machine but in a
bookworm chroot with: apt install nvidia-legacy-390xx-driver -s
