Yesterday I installed my new graphics card but when I rebooted the system stopped just before the lightdm login box, and just stayed with a cursor blinking at the top left of the screen. I'm assuming that I need new drivers for it, so my question is - What do I need to install to get a - Nvidia geforce GTX 1660 Ti - to work using Debian 10 please? I've googled but haven't found anything relevant to Debian 10. Thanks Sharon. -- A taste of linux = http://www.sharons.org.uk TGmeds = http://www.tgmeds.org.uk DrugFacts = https://www.drugfacts.org.uk Debian 10.0, fluxbox 1.3.7, emacs 26.2, org 9.2.5

The nvidia-driver package in non-free should work with it. There is no
support by free drivers, you would need at least a Linux 5.2 kernel
while Debian 10 comes with 4.19.
Cheers,
Sven

Will the nouveau kernel module work for that or are non-free drivers needed, on Debian 10? --hobie

The GeForce 210 has been around for many years, and nouveau should work fine
with it, modulo bugs.
Cheers,

Hi, Did you try to install "nvidia-driver"? I run nvidia drivers successfully with GTX 1050ti (on SID) as follows: When you install the driver test if the nvidia modules were build by "lsmod" or "modprobe nvidia". If the module is missing "dpkg-reconfigure nvidia-kernel-dkms". You should also check that novea is blacklisted. /etc/modprobe.d/nvidia-blacklists-nouveau.conf -> /etc/alternatives/glx--nvidia-blacklists-nouveau.conf # cat /etc/alternatives/glx--nvidia-blacklists-nouveau.conf # You need to run "update-initramfs -u" after editing this file. # see #580894 blacklist nouveau To use only the nvidia graphics create this xorg.conf. # cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf Section "Module" Load "modesetting" EndSection Section "Device" Identifier "nvidia" Driver "nvidia" BusID "PCI:01:00:00" Option "AllowEmptyInitialConfiguration" EndSection You might also change the following file if you use SDDM. /usr/share/sddm/scripts #!/bin/sh # Xsetup - run as root before the login dialog appears xrandr --setprovideroutputsource modesetting NVIDIA-0 xrandr --auto Jiri On 8/8/19 6:06 pm, Sharon Kimble wrote: > Yesterday I installed my new graphics card but when I rebooted the system stopped just before the lightdm login box, and just stayed with a cursor blinking at the top left of the screen.
