Package: nvidia-graphics-drivers Version: 195.36.24-4 Severity: wishlist
The nvidia-graphics-driver package contains a system management interface program, nvidia-smi, to do some device management and monitoring of nvidia devices.
It can read temperature sensors on the GPU and configure compute mode for CUDA applications. This is important for systems with several GPUs if you want applications to have exclusive access to a GPU. The nvidia-smi program has a strong dependency on the corresponding nvidia-driver version, so it would be convenient to have it packaged along with the drivers, maybe in a separate package.
