    Dear Maintainers,

    [...]

    However, I would like to propose the inclusion of both the NVIDIA LTS driver (currently packaged) and the latest "Recommended" driver as published on NVIDIA's website. The Recommended driver often contains important performance improvements, bug fixes, and support for new hardware, which are not backported
    to the LTS versions. This can be essential for users on newer GPUs or with specific workloads (e.g. CUDA, gaming, or ML environments).

    +1

    Certainly a good idea. Some users switch to another distribution for
    that good reason.
