Nvidia drivers

Thu Sep 27, 2018 11:01 am
I add the repository with this command
Code: Select all
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa

Then I trying to search nvidia drivers this command
Code: Select all
sudo apt-get update && clear && apt-cache search nvidia-[0-9] |grep 'binary driver'

I get this answer:
Code: Select all
nvidia-304 - NVIDIA legacy binary driver - version 304.137
nvidia-340 - NVIDIA binary driver - version 340.107


Where is another driver like 390 or 396? I have nvidia 960m. This problem only on KDE noen 18.04.

I have just updated KDE NEON to 18.04.
My desktop has an Nvidia card
The second screen has stopped working
The performance is unusable - clearly broken
I tried removing and purging the Nvidia drivers, this has had no effect
@PeWpIC is this similar to your issue?
