I have the latest nvidia drivers installed on Debian/bullseye.

nix run --impure github:guibou/nixGL -- program
error: unable to download 'https://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86_64/525.85.12/NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-525.85.12.run': HTTP error 404

Likewise on Fedora/RHEL 9!

EDIT: Uninstalled the driver provided by NVIDIA's own repo and used the runfile for the latest from https://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86_64 (currently https://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86_64/525.89.02/) and all is well.

The problem is also discussed in #170. To solve this issue on RHEL systems, I've created a fork with an additional derivation in nixGL, that gets the driver from the RHEL repository from the .rpm, and created a pull request #197.

If you face the driver problem and you are on any RHEL distro like Rocky, Fedora, etc., you can use the nixGL overlay from my fork until this is merged:

{
  inputs = {
    nixpkgs.url = "github:nixos/nixpkgs/nixos-unstable";
    nixgl = {
      url = "github:Aietes/nixGL/rhel";
    };
  };
  ....

Something similar can probably done for Debian and other distros, using the official NVIDIA driver for a specific distro as the source for nixGL.
