 ## Docker Description
 
-MinerU's Docker uses `vllm/vllm-openai` as the base image, so it includes the `vllm` inference acceleration framework and necessary dependencies by default. Therefore, on compatible devices, you can directly use `vllm` to accelerate VLM model inference.
+MinerU's Docker uses `vllm/vllm-openai` as the base image, so it includes the `vllm` inference acceleration framework and necessary dependencies by default. The current Dockerfile uses `vllm/vllm-openai:v0.21.0` by default for CUDA 13.0-compatible environments. If your environment requires a CUDA 12.9-compatible image, comment out the default `FROM` line at the top of the Dockerfile and enable the commented `vllm/vllm-openai:v0.21.0-cu129` base image instead. Therefore, on compatible devices, you can directly use `vllm` to accelerate VLM model inference.
 
 > [!NOTE]
 > Requirements for using `vllm` to accelerate VLM model inference:
 > 
 > - Device must have Volta architecture or later graphics cards with 8GB+ available VRAM.
-> - The host machine's graphics driver should support CUDA 12.9.1 or higher; You can check the driver version using the `nvidia-smi` command.
+> - The host machine's graphics driver must support the CUDA runtime used by the selected base image: the default `v0.21.0` image requires a CUDA 13.0-compatible driver, and `v0.21.0-cu129` requires a CUDA 12.9-compatible driver. You can check the driver version using the `nvidia-smi` command.
 > - Docker container must have access to the host machine's graphics devices.

+Mineru的docker使用了`vllm/vllm-openai`作为基础镜像，因此在docker中默认集成了`vllm`推理加速框架和必需的依赖环境。当前国内 Dockerfile 默认使用`docker.m.daocloud.io/vllm/vllm-openai:v0.21.0`，适用于 CUDA 13.0 兼容环境；如果您的环境需要 CUDA 12.9 兼容镜像，请将 Dockerfile 顶部的默认`FROM`注释掉，并启用注释中的`docker.m.daocloud.io/vllm/vllm-openai:v0.21.0-cu129`基础镜像。因此在满足条件的设备上，您可以直接使用`vllm`加速VLM模型推理。
 > [!NOTE]
 > 使用`vllm`加速VLM模型推理需要满足的条件是：
 > 
 > - 设备包含Volta及以后架构的显卡，且可用显存大于等于8G。
-> - 物理机的显卡驱动应支持CUDA 12.9.1或更高版本，可通过`nvidia-smi`命令检查驱动版本。
+> - 物理机的显卡驱动应支持所选基础镜像对应的 CUDA 运行时版本：默认`v0.21.0`需要 CUDA 13.0 兼容驱动，`v0.21.0-cu129`需要 CUDA 12.9 兼容驱动。可通过`nvidia-smi`命令检查驱动版本。
 > - docker中能够访问物理机的显卡设备。
