Hold it. There a phone number?

Let’s nooooooootttt!

Working. I had reset my BIOS and “safe boot” was back on. Turned it off, reinstalled the driver from “Driver Manager”, Used your commands and followed your instructions and found that the Nvidia driver was working. Opened Nvidia X server settings and it looked the way it should. nvidia-smi showed the whole shebang.

I knew you guys could help me. I could cry.

Seems like a promising answer, I wonder why someone downvoted it. I wish they’d left a comment.

I’ll def explore it

1. I have successfully “installed” them but when I’ve run nvidia-smi it says they aren’t loaded. Nvidia Prime applet says ERR.
2. Yes they’re NTFS. The computer is using fuse to access it. It seems the root permission things is linked to installing video drivers. Every time I do it it changes the “home” drive and the “root” drives.

Hmmm, which one? I’m going to paddle around in my kāy-nō?, or The lava from that vol-ka-ˈnew might cover the village!
