Install from Package Repositories

This guide covers installing the dps-utils package through the system package manager on supported Linux distributions.

Pre-Requisites

1. The system package manager has been configured to use an NVIDIA package registry for the system’s Linux distribution. For those using a CUDA local package registry on disk, it is recommended to update to the latest version available.

   Please refer to the CUDA installation guide for detailed steps.

2. A user needs sufficient permissions to install packages through the system package manager. This could be either a root user or a user with appropriate sudo privileges.
