NVIDIA has recently released an updated version of their Linux Open GPU Kernel Module (OKM), providing enhanced support for their latest GPUs and improved performance and stability. This module is essential for enabling full functionality of NVIDIA GPUs on Linux systems, including features such as CUDA, Vulkan, and OpenGL. The updated OKM also includes support for new NVIDIA GPUs, such as the RTX 40 series, and addresses various bugs and issues reported by users.

The NVIDIA Linux Open GPU Kernel Module is free to download and use, and can be easily installed on supported Linux distributions. Detailed installation instructions and documentation are available on the NVIDIA website. Once installed, the OKM will automatically load when an NVIDIA GPU is detected in the system, providing seamless integration and support for all NVIDIA GPU features. Whether you're a gamer, content creator, or developer, the NVIDIA Linux Open GPU Kernel Module is essential for unlocking the full potential of your NVIDIA GPU on Linux.


NVIDIA Linux Open GPU Kernel Module: This is the source release of the NVIDIA Linux open GPU kernel modules, version 530.41.03. Note that the kernel modules built here must be used with GSP firmware and user-space NVIDIA GPU driver components from a corresponding 530.41.03 driver release. Currently, the kernel modules can be built for x86_64 or aarch64. If cross-compiling, set these variables on the make command line. Any reasonably modern version of GCC or Clang can be used to build the kernel modules. Note that the kernel interface layers of the kernel modules must be built with the toolchain that was used to build the kernel. This code base is shared with NVIDIA's proprietary drivers, and various processing is performed on the shared code to produce the source code that is published here. When packaged in the NVIDIA .run installation package, the OS-agnostic component is provided as a binary.
