NVIDIA 550.135 is a small update that only improves support for distribution running the Linux 6.11 kernel series, which renamed drm_fbdev_generic to drm_fbdev_ttm, by using drm_fbdev_ttm when present to keep supporting direct framebuffer access on Wayland compositors to present content on newer kernels.
