Steps for installing modern Nvidia drivers on Debian Stable

hi @tmick :grinning_face:

I tried couple of times installing Nvidia drivers from non-free repository, but what I got was only a black screen.
The fact is I own a RTX 5070, and its installation on Debian is a bit tricky because I need very fresh drivers. If I’m not wrong Debian Trixie in its repository currently is having Driver 550.x.x, for RTX 5000 series I need version 570 or newer.

So far currently I have installed drivers 580.105 thanks extrepo and everything is going smooth.

Notice: Before the RTX 5070 I owned an RTX 3070ti, and I was able to install the drivers with non-free repository.
