| In GPU Operator v25.3.0 and later, the ``driver.kernelModuleType`` default is ``auto``, for the supported driver versions. | ||
| This configuration allows the GPU Operator to choose the recommended driver kernel module type depending on the driver branch and the GPU devices available. | ||
| Newer driver versions will use an open kernel module by default, however to make sure you are using an open model, include ``--set driver.kernelModuleType=open`` command-line arugment in your Operator install command. |

| Valid values are ``auto`` (default), ``proprietary``, and ``open``. | ||

| ``Auto`` means that the recommended kernel module type is chosen based on the GPU devices on the host and the driver branch used. |

Question: Do we want to include a note (like we do in the clusterpolicy table) about which driver container versions support auto?

Let's be consistent across the two install commands presented here in this section. Either both commands should specify --set driver.kernelModuleType=open or both commands should omit setting this field. I would be in favor of omitting this field as auto should take care of installing the open modules on supported systems. We can highlight that setting driver.kernelModuleType=open is only needed for older driver container versions where auto is not supported -- either in the text below or in a note.
I would be in favor of removing this field altogether since it is optional for users to configure it. The default setting, auto, should be sufficient as called out in the text.

I see you have already implemented my suggestion in the Installing the GPU Operator and Enabling GPUDirect Storage section :)

updated the sample here to match the sample in the other section!
| Valid values include: | ||
|
|
||
| * ``auto``: Default and recommended option. Use the default kernel module type (open or proprietary) based on the GPU Operator and driver containers used. | ||
| * ``open``: Use the NVIDIA Open GPU Kernel module driver. |

Question: Should Kernel be capitalized here?
