I have a 32 bit Debian 9 (4.9.0-9-686-pae + 4.9.0-6-rt-686-pae)installed on my machine. Due to the fact that these kernels are too old to support my second display adapter, I installed nvidia driver from stretch-backports. During the installation I saw the message saying the installation conflicts with nouveau driver and mentioned the solution is to reboot. However since I do not want to create problems due to nvidia, I uninstalled the nvidia driver straightway using the instuctions below
Code: Select all
sudo apt-get remove --purge '^nvidia-.*'
sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf // I did not do this as there was no xorg.conf file in my X11 folder
echo 'nouveau' | sudo tee -a /etc/modules
Any idea what might be wrong?
Thanks in advance
