There’s exciting news for users of NVIDIA graphics drivers as the third-party repository is making a significant change. The transition involves upgrading the existing 1024-bit DSA GPG key to a much more secure 4096-bit RSA GPG key. This move is essential to align with current security standards and best practices.

For those interested, here is the fingerprint of the new key:

    pub   rsa4096/0xB1D0D788DB27FD5A 2022-04-14 [SC]
          Key fingerprint = 2FB0 3195 DECD 4949 2BD1  C17A B1D0 D788 DB27 FD5A
    uid                             NVIDIA Linux Driver Team <[email protected]>

It’s important to note that this upgrade will also impact users of openSUSE Leap 15.5 and 15.6, as well as SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop.

If you have any queries or concerns regarding this transition, don’t hesitate to contact the Factory or Security mailing lists at Lists.
