I have an acer aspire laptop with an integrated intel and an nvidia GT 520M video card. I would like to install the proprietary nvidia drivers on my Mageia 4 to have some graphical boost.
However after using the recommended method from the wiki (Mageia Control Center or XFdrake), the system becomes unbootable (hanging at plymouth), I searched around in google and also on this forum, but still couldn't succeed.
Could any one give me some hints how could I solve this?
Thanks in advance!
Some info from my sys:
