Yup, Nvidia can be intresting to work with:- To say the least--
I cant install any of it in all a error ocurred and dont install anything its say dependency error of something like that, but i see in a post that i have this option of setting the drivers there is the picture of the options i have to choose, and i very open to any recomendation XD
okey now I have install Debian and I having the same problem but because is Debian this solution doesnt work anymore
and I dowload NVIDIA-Linux-x86-256.44.run
this drive but when I tried to intall it, its says that I am in x86_64 and i have to be in X86
so I tried to kill x this way:
sudo service gdm stop
/etc/init.d/gdm stop
and it doesnt work
I have been searching for forums with the solutions but I didt find it if you find it or you have any clue how can I solve it I will be thanksfull XD
