Note from <a href=\"https:\/\/nobaraproject.org\/docs\/nvidia-troubleshooting\/supported-hardware\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><b>Nobara<\/b><\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Please note that as Nobara is a forward-moving, gaming-focused distribution, it is <strong>required<\/strong> that if you have an <strong>Nvidia GPU<\/strong>, it must be supported by <strong>Nvidia Proprietary driver version 515 or newer<\/strong> for compatibility with the latest VKD3D and DXVK updates, OBS, Gamescope, and Vulkan. Older driver versions do not have the functionality and vulkan extensions that are required for these and will have performance and rendering issues, or may not work at all.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Neither the GNOME Software utility or the KDE Discover Software Center offered that new 515 Nvidia driver, which is why I use dnfdragora mostly, but users have two choices in both the Official &amp; KDE versions. BTW, having used Fedora for years I have finally accepted dnfdragora as a great packager manager \u2013 <u><b>ESPECIALLY<\/b><\/u> wid the huge improvements to it since Fedora 36.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"NVIDIA_Settings_driver\"><\/span>NVIDIA Settings &amp; driver:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-13802 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/linuxnewbiesince1996.files.wordpress.com\/2022\/10\/223ad-1b-nvidia-515.png?w=616\" alt=\"\" data-attachment-id=\"13802\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/linuxnewbiesince1996.com\/1a-nobara-dnfdragora-nvidia\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/linuxnewbiesince1996.files.wordpress.com\/2022\/10\/7a984-1a-nobara-dnfdragora-nvidia.png\" data-orig-size=\"1273,915\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"1a Nobara dnfdragora NVIDIA\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/linuxnewbiesince1996.files.wordpress.com\/2022\/10\/7a984-1a-nobara-dnfdragora-nvidia.png?w=500\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/linuxnewbiesince1996.files.wordpress.com\/2022\/10\/7a984-1a-nobara-dnfdragora-nvidia.png?w=616\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-13803 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/linuxnewbiesince1996.files.wordpress.com\/2022\/10\/5e295-1c-nvidia-1660.png?w=616\" alt=\"\" data-attachment-id=\"13803\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/linuxnewbiesince1996.com\/1b-nvidia-515\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/linuxnewbiesince1996.files.wordpress.com\/2022\/10\/223ad-1b-nvidia-515.png\" data-orig-size=\"819,365\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"1b NVIDIA 515\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/linuxnewbiesince1996.files.wordpress.com\/2022\/10\/223ad-1b-nvidia-515.png?w=500\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/linuxnewbiesince1996.files.wordpress.com\/2022\/10\/223ad-1b-nvidia-515.png?w=616\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Nobara makes it easy to install the latest Nvidia driver.
