Installation of NVIDIA Driver on SLES with Proper Dependencies

This document (000021908) is provided subject to the disclaimer at the end of this document.

Environment

SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 15 (all Service Packs)


Situation

Previous versions of the NVIDIA desktop driver (pre-570.xx) used a meta package (nvidia-drivers-G06) to install appropriate dependencies. 

For 570.xx and later version drivers, this nvidia-drivers-G06 meta package no longer exists.

Resolution

Instead for a CUDA only installation just install nvidia-compute-utils-G06.
For a complete desktop install nvidia-video-G06.
