If I have any problem with PC I always re-install OS. It solves everything usually

I just buy a new car whenever the old one needs an oil change.

How do you manage to get past the "empty gas tank" problem?

Too bad these forums don't have any way to rate or downvote a post...

A good mocking usually serves the purpose. I'm hoping that post was actually being sarcastic.

I would guess that the CUDA samples are tests to see if CUDA is working.

Does this brightness-control thingamajig work for you?

It just has a few simple python and x11 dependencies, so should install fine in Stretch from the deb:

Code: Select all

apt install <name-of-deb-file>

No. The only way to reduce the brightness is to wear sunglasses (no joke -- I'm wearing sunglasses now).

But do I need the samples? According to the wiki, I'm supposed to download the samples and test that they're present by adjusting the brightness.

Or should I just give up and call it finished?
