Kde neon 6.3 nvidia driver

Never, ever, download the driver binaries direct from Nvidia and install them using the .run file in the case you can’t find them in official Ubuntu repo’s - Doing so will result in issues as important packages get overwritten.

Always install Nvidia drivers using your distro’s package manager.

The latest Nvidia 570’s are available under the Nvidia Launchpad PPA, I’ve been using this PPA under KDE Neon for years now and I’ve never once encountered an issue:

To install drivers using the PPA, open terminal and execute the following commands:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa
sudo apt install nvidia-driver-570

The very latest 570’s have just been released and aren’t available under the PPA as yet, they should be available within the next few days. However the 570.86.16 drivers are available at the present time. I’m using them along with an RTX 4070S and they run great.
