[oi-dev] Nvidia Driver 470.256.02 fails to load properly

[Atiq Rahman]

Hi,
GUI Boot of live usb image fails on my AMD (x64/amd64 processor) notebook

dGPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060

Screenshot of graphical boot failing with error messages are here:

As you can see it's trying to load version 470.256.02 of the nVidia
driver for my notebook. But, it eventually fails! What might be the
possible fix?

When I look up on the nvidia site for the driver, ref,
https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/drivers
 lists drivers. latest version:
  Driver Version: 575.64.03 - Release Date: Tue Jul 01, 2025

Is there a way to get the driver uptodate on OI?

Also, do you guys happen to have a gfx driver contribution starting guide?

Best!

Atiq
