+ Under Ubuntu 22, I was trying to make NVIDIA CUDA work, but I can't
+ because the only compatible mix of CUDA and drivers results in a virtual
+ dependency problem.
+ 
+ apparently the problem is the lack the xorg-video-abi-24 in the xserver-
+ xorg-core package
+ 
+ as the grep command shows, only the video-abi-25 is provided in ubuntu
+ 22 , but in order to install cuda 10.2 (or older), the version 24 is
+ needed.

- Under Ubuntu 22, I was trying to make NVIDIA CUDA work, but I can't because 
the only compatible mix of CUDA and drivers results in a virtual dependency 
problem.
+ installing cuda 10.2 or older will give you this error:
  
- The latest version of the nividia-drivers on my system is 510,for all
- packages newer than this the persistence daemon fails.  No problem I
- suppose, I'll just install 510 and cuda-drivers-510.

- Only that doesn't work, because apparently though this package is
- installed it doesn't rprovide any of the xorg-video-abi virtual packages
- like it did in prior versions.
