What video drivers are you using? If you're using the open source driver, try the proprietary driver from nvidia.

Hi Gapan,
Thank you for your answer.

I'm trying to install propietary driver from nvidia (nvidia-driver version 352.63) but I get the following error:
Creating directory NVIDIA-Linux-x86-352.63
Verifying archive integrity... OK

install the kernel-source

Code: Select all

sudo slapt-get -i kernel-source

Hi Gapan,

Thank you for yout answer.

I've installed kernel-source, as you wrote. OK
And when I tryed to install nvidia-driver I got the following error:
nvidia-xconfig-352.63/common-utils/gen-manpage-opts-helper.h
tar: /usr/src/slapt-src/system/nvidia-driver/nvidia-modprobe-352.63.tar.bz2: No se puede open: No existe el fichero o el directorio

Use the binaries from nvidia:
https://docs.salixos.org/wiki/How_to_In ... DIA_driver

Hi Gapan,
Thank you for your answer.

I did what you wrote, I'm trying it. I think I'ts OK.

I installed the driver NVIDIA-Linux-X86-304.131.run.
I got the instructions from: https://docs.salixos.org/wiki/How_to_In ... DIA_driver
I got the driver from: http://la.nvidia.com/download/driverRes ... x/95179/la
The following link http://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx?lang=en-us is atool to search the drivers.
