Nvidia Driver Version

Omniverse Isaac Sim
1

Hi,

I’m currently using Ubuntu 22.04 with kernel 6.8.0-59-generic and my GPU is RTX A6000.
I understand the officially recommended NVIDIA driver for Isaac Sim is 535.129.03, which works on kernel 5.15.x.

However, due to compatibility issues (e.g., network not working), I am considering using a newer driver such as 570.x with kernel 6.8.

Can Isaac Sim work reliably with newer NVIDIA driver versions like 570.x?
Or is it strictly limited to 535.129.03 for stability and rendering compatibility?

Thanks in advance for any guidance or experience!

Please check the following notes from https://docs.isaacsim.omniverse.nvidia.com/4.5.0/installation/requirements.html:

We recommend installing the Latest Production Branch Version drivers from the Unix Driver Archive using the .run installer on Linux, if you are on a new GPU or experiencing issues with the current drivers.

NVIDIA driver version 535.216.01 or later is recommended when upgrading to Ubuntu 22.04.5 kernel 6.8.0-48-generic or later.

Per Unix Drivers | NVIDIA, the current Latest Production Branch Version:
570.144.
So you can use version 570.144.
