Re: Tutorial - Install proprietary Nvidia driver in EasyOS

You should use the i915 driver . It is well written and supports OpenGL
As BarryK mentioned his nvidia SFS blacklists i915 driver.
There are few Linux programs that use nvidia CUDA instructions.

VULKAN rather than the common OpenGL

Blender is experimenting with VULKAN rather than the commonly-used OpenGL
Probably the vulkan folder can be removed out of nvidia driver package if it's just an experiment???
