Description Evgenii Shatokhin 2020-03-13 00:02:40 MSK

Notes
1. As usual with NVidia drivers for x86_64, 32-bit repositories are still needed. This is why the tests failed.

2. nvidia-current is not recommended for everyday use, it is intended for experimentation, debugging, etc. Instead, the users should choose one of the variants XFdrake suggests.

3. To install the driver, install x11-driver-video-nvidia-current and then reboot the system. To remove the driver, remove all packages with 'nvidia-current' in the names, use XFdrake to set up graphics again and then reboot the system.
