Quoting: redneckdrow
Confidential issue #12092
What? I switched to AMD specifically to use drivers that offer a first-class FOSS experience, and to avoid this kind of vague chicanery.

Part of the point of FOSS is, you know, being open about issues! I get paranoid about this crap ever since I first started reading the likes of Brian Krebs and Bruce Schneier years ago.

It's a common practice in almost any opensource when dealing with vulnerabilities.

Quoting: ShabbyXAnyone knows how to have a convenient get-the-latest-nvidia-driver setup on Debian? On Ubuntu, they had something in the settings to choose the latest driver. In Debian, the nvidia driver is always waaay behind.

AFAIK there was some command line option you can run official Nvidia driver .run file with to generate .deb files you can then install with dpkg.
