Dear Maintainer,

I followed these steps:
1.ran $ wget
https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos/debian13/x86_64/cuda-
keyring_1.1-1_all.deb
2. Then ran  dpkg -i /path/to/cuda-keyring_1.1-1_all.deb
3. Then ran apt update && apt upgrade
and it installed both just fine. HOWEVER the drivers are not recognized, if I
run
nvidia-smi    NVIDIA-SMI has failed because it couldn't communicate with the
NVIDIA driver. Make sure that the latest NVIDIA driver is installed and
running.

To ensure DKMS and the nvidia driver installed I ran:
apt install nvidia-kernel-dkms nvidia-driver
nvidia-kernel-dkms is already the newest version (595.71.05-1).
nvidia-driver is already the newest version (595.71.05-1).
Summary:
  Upgrading: 0, Installing: 0, Removing: 0, Not Upgrading: 0

So it appears the driver was installed but isn't being recognised. Is there an
ETA when a working version will be available?
