Acer F5-573G-792K and NVIDIA. Help !!

[l0l1t4]

Hi everybody. Can you help me with NVIDIA drivers on laptop ?

model : Acer Aspire F5-573G-792K
CPU: Intel® Core™ i7-6500U CPU @ 2.50GHz × 4
RAM : 16 GB
Graphic Card : NVIDIA GeForce GTX 950M 4GB RAM
HDD 1TB + SSD 128

Ubuntu 16.04 works great, there are no problems with graphic card
I'v got installed Intel drivers from here : https://01.org/linuxgraphics/downloads
and NVIDIA driver from PPA/driver nvidia-364 works correctly.

On Debian i've got blank screen everytime after install nvidia-drivers or after trying script from http://smxi.org. In doesn't works.

I dont really know what to do.

[l0l1t4]

You may say blablabla install bumblebee. Ok.

950m supported by bumblebee for propietary and nouveau drivers

https://wiki.debian.org/Bumblebee

Sid and Jessie users can install everything directly from the official repositories.

For users who would like to use the free nouveau driver:

sudo apt-get install bumblebee primus

Done.

Maybe anyone can help me, i want Debian with Nvidia working before Christmas come

[Head_on_a_Stick]

Wait for the stretch release next year, jessie won't support that Skylake integrated card properly anyway...

It really does confuse me why people think that Debian stable will support the latest hardware, it is quite bizarre

The Debian developers are far more interested in providing support for the people who cannot afford such hardware, monied users such as yourself are simply not a priority.

Looks like you're stuck with *buntu unless you want to man up and install sid, Arch or Parabola instead

I'm working on a similar Skylake Machine; an Acer E5-575g-53VG...Intel 520 graphics and Nvidia GeForce 940MX. The "X" is critical, since they aren't supported by the Nvidia drivers until 361...so I've been backporting the 367 driver from Stretch to try that out.

The Skylake graphics won't work correctly until the kernel, Mesa 12.0.3, and Intel xorg drivers are updated from jessie-backports. Actually, I'm using the slightly older version of the Intel driver that's since been removed from backports, 2:2.99.917-2. I'll have to test with the current one in j-b to make sure that works.Just finished porting over the newer vaapi drivers for MX and they also work now for Intel. I'll report on if I get Bumblebee working, and maybe set up a repo for the 367 Nvidia drivers.

I'm also wary of those Nvidia drivers you installed via PPA, the 352 Nvidia drivers in jessie-backports support the GTX 950M.
