If you’re using flakes, you can also use the blender-bin flake, which just wraps the upstream Blender binaries, so it has CUDA support. You can run the most recent stable version using nix run blender-bin, or enable it in a NixOS configuration:
{
outputs = { self, nixpkgs, blender-bin }: {
nixosConfigurations.bla = nixpkgs.lib.nixosSystem {
system = "x86_64-linux";
modules =
[ ({ config, pkgs, ... }:
{ nixpkgs.overlays = [ blender-bin.overlay ];
environment.systemPackages = [ pkgs.blender_2_93 ];
})
...
];
};
};
}
