Re: Version number issue in BookwormPup64 10.0.6

Hi @MikeLvG. The Hardinfo application is pulling the version number from the text file /usr/lib/os-release rather than the more usual /etc/DISTRO_SPECS file. It may be that there are some other debian based applications that also check os-release which contains 4 references to the earlier 10.0.5 ver...

Hi @bigpup, You have made good progress with this problematic topic. I too find it strange that getnvidia-1.5.1 did not include the desktop file but it is an old package not modified in years and possibly not fully suitable for Debian Bookworm. It is an easy task to edit the pet but before I do that...

Here are the properties of that package: Note that a Predepend is the nvidia-installer cleanup and any missing Recommends should also be offered and should all be accepted. With regard to Nvi...
