No urgency and only for tracking 510 branch stabilization (version may still change). wrt bug #835762, this is about [1] being included + stabled (>=qtwayland-5.15.2-r18 which I imagine will be 5.15.3 at this point after issues been ironed out -- again, no urgency). Also would like a report from someone with a Kepler card[2] to confirm that installing >=nvidia-drivers-510 gives them a huge warning that it doesn't support their card after installing (albeit this is generally well known).

All sanity-check issues have been resolved
It matters because you need a 510 series driver for RTX 30* cards, which are finally available at sane prices. The 470 series driver doesn't work for these.
Created attachment 778226 [details] Log for installing nvidia-drivers-510.68.02 on a GT 710 Installs and warns about the version # lspci | grep NVIDIA 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GK208B [GeForce GT 710] (rev a1)
Still waiting for bug #830482, I recall Xorg talking of doing "a new release in 2 weeks" on their bug tracker and felt no hurry but that was some months ago.

On a side-note, according to nvidia's changelog, newly stabled 470.129.06 now supports additional 30xx cards (e.g. 3090ti) meanwhile.

May at most still be a bit rocky for wayland users given the some applications will switch to using GBM, but gnome/kde have rolled out fixes to major issues a while ago. Owners of Kepler cards should mask >=x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-471 as the ebuild will warn about (thanks for testing wrt #837317).
