Update nvidia-glx-driver to 396.54
Closed, WontfixPublic

Description

396.54 is recommended by Valve for use with Steam Play.

Event Timeline

For this there is the nvidia-beta inside the repo

I'm aware, but 396.54 isn't a beta according to Nvidia's driver portal. It's a short-lived branch release, from what I can tell.

So the path going forward for this is:

  • Introduce a nvidia-390-driver for 390.xx series
  • Drop 304, have nouveau handle it.
  • Bump nvidia-glx-driver to 396.

Not sure who amongst #core_team_org will sort it first but marking as an improvement.

396 series is no more. 410 is officially out.
