Which is roughly the same way as closed-source drivers are handled.
- jcoffland 10y agoNot really. Closed source drivers don't come with source code and aren't compiled by dkms.
- GauntletWizard 10y agoThe Nvidia driver does require DKMS, but it's still a binary blob - It ships with source for a wrapper, compiles that, and that loads the blob.
- ryao 10y agoDKMS is for out of tree drivers. Closed source drivers being out of tree can of course use it too.
