I'm using nixpkgs=flake:github:NixOS/nixpkgs/nixos-23.11 and am experiencing the following error when following the installation instructions:

I'm running on Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS with Nix installed via the Determinate Nix installer. NVIDIA driver is installed by the instructions here. Happy to provide any other information that would be useful to debug.

Same thing with nix-env -iA nixgl.auto.nixGLNvidia.

Using the nix flake directly fails for a different reason:

This is a duplicate of #154 I'd say.

trofi added a commit to trofi/nixpkgs that referenced this issue Jan 25, 2024
@trofi
nvidia-x11: revert "add an assert that useSettings implies more tha…
b2ee490 
…n `libsOnly`"

THe change caused nixGL instantiation failures:

- nix-community/nixGL#157
- nix-community/nixGL#154

I missed the fact that there is no easy way to oberride `useSettings` as
it's an internal argument as ollosed to `useLibs`.

Instead of fixing it let's revert it back and try again later.

This reverts commit 9c51fb0.
