Changelog is wrong, it's from 535.98.

Same issue as when 535.98 released, they've copy/pasted the changelog from the previous driver....again.

Well, I hope this fixes my "NVIDIA kernel module missing. Falling back to nouveau" issue that I've been facing with Fedora 38 for the past few weeks

How do u even use this driver in the first place?

I didn't think that SLI was even supported on Linux. Is it? I'm pretty sure that Crossfire for AMD cards has never been implemented on Linux, although I still wish it was, just to play around with it using older cards.

What’s wrong with providing these official semi drivers in distros if they allow to use Ngreedia GPU with full potential ?
As I understand the driver logic code is embedded in the GPU as closed source and this is just a code that allows to access it ?

AFAIK, crossfire was implemented in older fglrx drivers, but it required some support on app side, and there was no software that supported crossfire on linux

When can we use this on Ubuntu 22.04?

Awesome to hear. I actually have 2 3090s in sli.

Around the time we stop having people using Ubuntu and wondering why they're stuck with outdated packages
