Title:
Should nvidia-driver-XXX-server stop recommending nvidia-settings?
Status in nvidia-graphics-drivers-460-server package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
The nvidia-driver-* packages have a Recommends on nvidia-settings.
Installing them w/ recommends enabled therefore ends up bringing in
the whole X stack, including gdm3. gdm3 will do things like suspend
systems if the login screen is idle - not behavior server users would
expect. The description for nvidia-settings suggests it is only
applicable for graphics configuration. Therefore, would it make sense
to remove the nvidia-settings recommendation from the nvidia-
driver-*-server packages, which are more oriented for server class
hardware?
