Nvidia-driver-pinning-580 missing for debian 13

[tru_huynh]

hi

The debian13 repository only provides driver 590 versions for x86_64 (Index of /compute/cuda/repos/debian13/x86_64) , while one can find nvidia-driver-pinning-570|580|590 for debian12.

Can we expect those versions for debian13 in the future?

My debian13 reports:

#  apt-cache search nvidia-driver-pinning
nvidia-driver-pinning-590.44.01 - APT driver pinning file for driver version 590.44.01
nvidia-driver-pinning-590.48.01 - APT driver pinning file for driver version 590.48.01
nvidia-driver-pinning-590 - APT driver pinning file for driver branch 590

while the debian12 machine:

# apt-cache search nvidia-driver-pinning
nvidia-driver-pinning-580 - APT driver pinning file for driver branch 580
nvidia-driver-pinning-580.105.08 - APT driver pinning file for driver version 580.105.08
nvidia-driver-pinning-590.44.01 - APT driver pinning file for driver version 590.44.01
nvidia-driver-pinning-590.48.01 - APT driver pinning file for driver version 590.48.01
nvidia-driver-pinning-590 - APT driver pinning file for driver branch 590
nvidia-driver-pinning-570.211.01 - APT driver pinning file for driver version 570.211.01
nvidia-driver-pinning-570 - APT driver pinning file for driver branch 570
nvidia-driver-pinning-580.126.09 - APT driver pinning file for driver version 580.126.09
nvidia-driver-pinning-580.126.16 - APT driver pinning file for driver version 580.126.16
nvidia-driver-pinning-580.126.20 - APT driver pinning file for driver version 580.126.20

My legacy card is only supported up to v580:

$ /usr/bin/lspci|grep -i vga
4f:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GP102 [GeForce GTX 1080 Ti] (rev a1)

Thanks

This post should give you some overview of the matter:

`apt update` Fails Due To Obsolete Key

while I do agree that it would be absolutely awesome if Nvidia added v580 to D-13 repos, I’m afraid there are little chances for it: this is a data-center repo and nobody these days makes new Pascal/Volta DC deployments, not even Chinese, so there’s no business justification. porting the CUDA toolkit version corresponding to v580 to glibc-2.41+ is not a completely trivial task. Given the above, pressing Debian to finally package v580 in its repos, has much higher chances of success IMHO (espe…

While this is officially unsupported, v580 from D-12 repos has been reported to work fine on D-13 by several users, see this thread: DC apt repos for Debian-13 pretty please?

UPDATE: …and the related Debian wiki subsection.

You’d think a company with unlimited money would have a clue what they were doing
