[SOLVED] Nvidia-driver not found apt

Hi,

i just installed devuan from a desktop live, the normal installer didn´t work with ventoy.

Im trying to install nvidia-driver there is no package candidate for the installation, i already install lunix-headers as proposed in this thread https://dev1galaxy.org/viewtopic.php?id=7020

Also, i already uncommented all sources.list

# Package repositories
deb [url]http://deb.devuan.org/merged[/url] daedalus main non-free-firmware
deb [url]http://deb.devuan.org/merged[/url] daedalus-updates main non-free-firmware
deb [url]http://deb.devuan.org/merged[/url] daedalus-security main non-free-firmware
deb [url]http://deb.devuan.org/merged[/url] daedalus-proposed-updates main non-free-firmware
deb [url]http://deb.devuan.org/merged[/url] daedalus-backports main non-free-firmware[/c]

[c]# Source repositories
deb-src [url]http://deb.devuan.org/merged[/url] daedalus main non-free-firmware
deb-src [url]http://deb.devuan.org/merged[/url] daedalus-updates main non-free-firmware
deb-src [url]http://deb.devuan.org/merged[/url] daedalus-security main non-free-firmware
deb-src [url]http://deb.devuan.org/merged[/url] daedalus-backports main non-free-firmware

apt update
apt search nvidia-driver
0 results

adding to sources.list contrib, apt search throws 3 results but, still no canditate to install nvidia-driver.

how i install the nvidia-driver?

have a nice day.
