bumblebee-nvidia deb for 390xx driver?


Hi guys. Apperantly I'm a spammer and I can not even register on debian forums, not even if I use VPN. So, it's your mission to help me.

I have Debian 10.3 buster, instruction for installing bumblebee call for
$ sudo apt install bumblebee-nvidia primus libgl1-nvidia-glx

This command installs the latest nvidia driver 400something, which does not support my GPU, GeForce 460GT. I have a laptop with i3 CPU and that video card.

Thus, when I run optirun it would tell me GPU is not accessible and when I view kern.log it would say nvidia driver failed to initialized because it don't support my GPU.

Question is simple, how to install bumblebee-nvidia deb and maybe libgl1-nvidia-glx deb so that 390xx driver is installed instead??

No. It really isn't.

Perhaps the following may work:
Code:
apt install bumblebee-nvidia primus libgl1-nvidia-legacy-390xx-glx

The command above worked for my 635M. At least I don't see any error messages and Nvidia Daemon loads successfully. Thank you!
