udev rules are broken because missing module is being used for device identification on 545.29.02 #197

I think nvidia-frontend might be gone from 545.29.02, but it might be only on my computer. Device files(/dev/nvidia*) do not get created as a result. (I noticed it because I have NVreg_ModifyDeviceFiles=0)

Files got created successfully after modifying grep commands to use nvidiactl, but correct approach would probably be to search for exact match for each specific entry

File was renamed from nvidia-frontend to nvidia, information from issues in nvidia-kmod-common and egl-wayland

Should be fixed with https://github.com/Frogging-Family/nvidia-all/pull/216

Did not fit me functionality wise, but I respect the choice for a cleaner approach.

Just FYI for future reference - it respects NVreg_ModifyDeviceFiles and does not create them at all in case of 0.

Obnoxiously specific use-case for those interested: I use VFIO forwarding on multi-nvidia-gpu multi-seat environment at random moments and I want device files to be isolated by permissions and static.
