[SOLVED] Mageia 6 and graphic card NVIDIA GeForce GT 720M
Posted: Mar 2nd, '18, 16:49Hi everyone,
I installed Mageia 6 on a Lenovo B5400 laptop and everything ran smoothly untli a few days ago (or weeks, I m not sure).
My graphic card is NVIDIA GeForce GT 720M
Now, the graphic environment (plasma, LXDE) sometimes freezes...
I tried to install proprietary drivers for the graphic card (found on http://www.geforce.com) but it did not solve the issue, and things are even worse now.... it seems that the install of the proprietary drivers wipe out the "nouveau" driver
So I would like to go back the graphical server that was installed during the install of MAgeia 6 (and which worked great).
Is there a way to have XFdrake automatically select a graphical server ?
Though it proposes some options for GeForce cards, I am not sure which one is the best for me.
Any help appreciated !
Vincent
