nope, it's supposed to "Return the recommended driver version", see https://github.com/tseliot/ubuntu-drivers- common/blob/138c91aae486f2449d374273ae3790800132f09f/NvidiaDetector/nvidiadetector.py#L40-L48 On my system (XUbuntu 20.04 with Geforce 970) it's what it does, it prints "nvidia-driver-470" I think if it prints "None" that means that it couldn't find any nvidia GPU (or maybe at least none it knows a driver for?) on the system -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1808874 Title: nvidia-detector doesn't seem to detect nvidia To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-drivers-common/+bug/1808874/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
