Hello, we are looking to migrate from VMware and wanted to see if it's possible to install NVidia host vGPU manager? when i attempt to install the host driver i get the following error.
I'm fairly new to Linux to understand what dependencies are needed.
apt install ./nvidia-vgpu-ubuntu-535_535.183.04_amd64.deb
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
Reading state information... Done
Note, selecting 'nvidia-vgpu-ubuntu-535' instead of './nvidia-vgpu-ubuntu-535_535.183.04_amd64.deb'
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
nvidia-vgpu-ubuntu-535 : Depends: linux-headers but it is not installable
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
 
First try "apt install linux-headers-amd64" , it's for amd+intel :)
Then again "apt install nvidia-vgpu-ubuntu-535" (if repo defined or with longname and ./nvidia... as before).

"apt install ./nvidia-vgpu-ubuntu-535_535.183.04_amd64.deb" as it's a debian file and not a nvidia installer file.
