SIGH. Because GPL you can't pre-install the NVIDIA driver. At that point, it sadly makes more sense to have you roll your own and then bake the image. I'll gladly hand out refunds for the X minutes this takes (don't forget that on kernel upgrades you get to do it again when the kernel headers change!), but like you I wish it weren't so.

- boulos 10y agoYes, that's correct. But, you still must have the user do so. Otherwise, you're distributing the resulting artifact (the Nvidia driver linked against the kernel) which is GPL (kernel) and not (NVIDIA). But IANAL.
