ReillyBrogan So that won't work because @Semenov is using a laptop that has a nvidia GPU that is simply too old for any of the driver packages we have in the repos. His only choice is to use the noveau driver built in to the kernl
But (why) the nvidia-390-glx-driver-current are not good?
"....Below are the legacy GPUs that are no longer supported in the unified driver. These GPUs will continue to be maintained through the special legacy NVIDIA GPU driver releases.
The 390.xx driver supports the following set of GPUs:
........GeForce GT 220M 0649 1043 202D A
.......
GeForce GT 220M 0654 A....."

And try the run files installers Nvidia is not possible (safe-useful)?
