Salix OS

PepperminOS with MX Linux repos.

Sparky Linux with MX Linux repos.




I'm devastated I can't get NVIDIA drivers installed on this machine with Salix. This is my main computer and I would really like to run Salix on it. I've tried everything that can be found on the web pipes, including several threads on this forum.

Out of the hundreds of spins I've run; Salix is the most responsive. I'll have to try Slackware itself; but I'm not so interested in source based spins.

Hi, 8bit,

Maybe I missed it, but I didn't see you post anything about this issue. If you start a new thread with the model / specs of your Nvidia GPU and tell us the steps you followed, I bet that one of the Salix wizards here can help get it working ...

Did you try the instructions in the Salix Wiki?

Salix Wiki. "How to Install the Proprietary NVIDIA Driver."

The Nvidia Driver Downloads page is here:

HTH.

Not Salix LOL but it interested me. Nobody else has this wallpaper. <3

Currently running the mash-up, Sparky Linux w/ MX Linux repos.
Waiting to get the issues sorted out to put Salix on this machine.
