I am trying to instll the nvidia proprietary driver on Ubuntu becuase I think it runs better and has better application support.
When I go to "Software and Updates" all I see is the (open source) options (see picture).
Why don't I see the proprietary driver option?
What is the difference between the (open source) nVidia driver and the nouveau (open source) driver?
NOTE: I am using an nVidia RTX6000 card.
Because the nVidia proprietary driver is not in the standard repositories so you'd eed to:
OR
Enable a PPA that has this driver
and then:
install the driver according to the method you used above:
sudo apt install nvidia-xxxwhere xxx is the driver number you need (430 at the time of this writing)
