Bug#1123801: Please package a driver supporting Blackwell GPUs

[Piotr Morgwai Kotarbinski]

Package: nvidia-driver
Version: 580.105.08-1
Severity: wishlist
X-Debbugs-Cc: anbe at debian.org

Currently no Debian-packaged driver supports Blackwell GPUs (for example RTX 50xx), which limits Debian adoption on newer hardware.
Version 580 supports Blackwell, compiles without problems on kernels 6.16+ and is also the last one supporting Maxwell, Pascal and Volta GPUs and as such will receive a LTS from Nvidia. Therefore it seems like a good candidate for Debian packaging.

Thanks!
