<div dir="ltr">Package: nvidia-driver<br>Version: 590.44.01-1<br>Severity: important<br><br>Dear Maintainer,<br><br>I ran into issues trying to install the nvidia driver on debian 13 rt.<br>I followed the instructions on the debian wiki for the installation. <br>After installing, running `dkms status` would say that the driver was installed.<br>But when I rebooted the computer, the driver would not load. After some troubleshooting,<br>I found out that the driver was installed for a regular kernel but not for an rt kernel.<br>I fixed it by purging the drivers, installing `cuda-keyring_1.1-1_all.deb` from <a href="https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos/debian13/x86_64/">https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos/debian13/x86_64/</a> ,<br>updating apt, then installing the drivers.<br><br>I made a post on the nvidia dev forums here:<br><a href="https://forums.developer.nvidia.com/t/cant-get-nvidia-driver-to-work-on-deabian-13-rt-laptop/353618/12">https://forums.developer.nvidia.com/t/cant-get-nvidia-driver-to-work-on-deabian-13-rt-laptop/353618/12</a> <br><br><br>-- System Information:<br>Debian Release: 13.2<br>  APT prefers stable-updates<br>  APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable-security'), (500, 'stable')<br>Architecture: amd64 (x86_64)<br>Foreign Architectures: i386<br><br>Kernel: Linux 6.12.57+deb13-rt-amd64 (SMP w/12 CPU threads; PREEMPT)<br>Kernel taint flags: TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE, TAINT_OOT_MODULE, TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE<br>Locale: LANG=en_CA.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_CA.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_CA:en<br>Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash<br>Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system)<br>LSM: AppArmor: enabled<br><br>Versions of packages nvidia-driver depends on:<br>ii  nvidia-driver-libs                                     590.44.01-1<br>ii  nvidia-kernel-dkms                                     590.44.01-1<br>ii  nvidia-kernel-support                                  590.44.01-1<br>ii  nvidia-vdpau-driver                                    590.44.01-1<br>ii  xserver-xorg-video-nvidia [xserver-xorg-video-nvidia]  590.44.01-1<br><br>nvidia-driver recommends no packages.<br><br>Versions of packages nvidia-driver suggests:<br>pn  nvidia-driver-pinning-590  <none><br>ii  nvidia-settings            590.44.01-1<br><br>-- no debconf information<br><br></div>
