I'm trying to install the Nvidia driver on Debian Buster (unofficial non-free) but I fail.
I have a GTX 1060 and i installed the "nvidia-driver" package:
Code: Select all
sudo apt install nvidia-driver
(I installed "nvidia-detect" to confirm i installed the correct package.)
I rebooted and meet a black console.
I tried to start with "startx" and was able to start X. I went to Nvidia-settings and it complained I had to run nvidia-xconfig. I did that and rebooted... but again a black console. Tried startx again but then I got some error message, and no go on starting X.
I'm using KDE if that matters.
This should just work...
I recently successfully installed the Nvidia driver at the exact same way on KDE-Neon.
Is Debian making installing Nvidia drivers difficult on purpose for some reason?
