Hello everybody out there!

	It happens I have an NVidia video-card. If I install the proprietary
driver, I may be able to give some help to Nouveau development team.

	The thing is, I am using the real-time kernel—it turns out you can have
some trouble with the standard kernel when doing some intense treatment
in real-time music. I am not sure, but after a long history of troubles
it seems NVidia proprietary driver does works on real-time kernel nowadays.

	I am also using Wayland. It also seems NVidia proprietary driver now
does work on Wayland.

	What can help is I am also using backports, therefore I have a rather
recent kernel—at the time I am writing, the current real-time kernel
version is 5.10. Also, I prefer to use drivers from standard
repositories, to ensure my system stays coherent and to ensure security
updates are regularly done. On backport repositories, the current
version of NVidia proprietary driver is 460.39.

	Well, before doing some strange tests, I would rather have an idea of
what I am doing. So, can anybody confirms these versions of real-time
kernel, Wayland and NVidia proprietary driver will work together?

	Best regards.
