I just noticed the thread was retired has anyone else seen this when just browsing to the plugin 

 

TY I figured there was a write up on it after reading the Nvidia thread  

So, that's great that it's coming with 6.9.  Any idea when that will actually be released?  I mean, they are on version 35 right now.  Do we wait until 100 sometime in 2021 Q3 before they actually release it?

If you need the drivers and dont want to go to beta. check out this thread:

 

 

perfect ty i tend to stay away from the Betas 

 

Same, however I need 6.9 support now due to getting a threadripper CPU (3rd Gen) But I am suppriesed how many people that used plex/unraid were unaware of this option. I ran into the issue and a few google searches later I found this and been using it since. (I just got the rep crested ones and they work flawlesly)

 

Glad I could help

may i message you when im ready to manually apply drivers? im quite lost 

It was actually really easy. I downloaded the:

Unraid Custom nVidia builtin v6.8.3: Download
(nVidia driver: 450.66)

 

Once downloaded I extraced the files into a folder. Then shutdown unraid. removed the USB, pluged the USB into my PC. Made a backup of the USB files to a folder on my desktop. (Just incase it was needed)

 

Once that was done, I took the files from the folder that was unziped from the download and copied them to the root of my USB. It will ask to ovewrite the old files. I said yes. once done, I reomeved the USB from my pc and put it into unradi server and booted it back up. And was up and running without issue.

 

Then to verify the drivers are updated, open the terminal window in unraid and run: nvidia-smi

 

You make it sound So easy! Thanks.

You can actually install my Unraid-Kernel-Helper-Plugin from the CA App.

 

Danke!

I thinkni will update the driver to the latest version for unraid 6.8.3 tomorrow.

and that will handle the NVidia drivers for 6.9? that's awesome

Do it like @almulder said and then install the kernel helper plugin (thats for use with unraid version 6.8.3) that will display informations about the gpu and your uuid.
