They come with an open source licence, and should be provided as an option for datacenter GPUs: https://developer.nvidia.com/blog/nvidia-releases-open-source-gpu-kernel-modules/ Currently, this is only production-ready (and enabled) on datacenter GPUs. * We should enable signed modules for the 515-open drivers, giving users the option to try the drivers. * The ubuntu-drivers tool should set a lower priority for the -open flavour, so that we do not end up recommending it over the plain 515 flavour. [ Test Plan ] * [ubuntu-drivers-common]: "sudo ubuntu-drivers install (to make sure the driver is not installed by default)" * [nvidia driver] "sudo ubuntu-drivers install nvidia:515-open" to make sure that the driver can be installed manually. Please make sure that this installs the correct linux-restricted- modules. Note: support for GeForce and Workstation GPUs is alpha-quality, and is disabled by default. This means that desktop testing is not needed at the moment. [ Where problems could occur ] * This adds a new driver combination, which is not meant to be default, and is only enabled for a limited amount of devices (datacenter GPUs). * We need to be sure that the driver is not recommended over the other drivers.
