I want you to know that I read through and appreciate this in depth write up and critique of the previous person’s source/citation.
That worked perfectly. Thank you so much!
I don’t know how to check the apt install logs; from the terminal, I can’t scroll up for whatever reason (still on the terminal/console with no gui). What would be the nvidia installer? looking that up only gives me results on ubuntu-drivers install command.
Is there a way to purge the entire grep output without going through one by one? also, is the main meta package that dkms file?
edit: I went through and deleted everything in that list one by one, but for whatever reason, some things won’t delete: I tried using rm -rf' and
shred` on those files, but they still show up when I grep them (and the shred command says they’re not there when I try to delete them, even tho they show up in grep)
edit 2: OK I had tried running sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall' again, saw the same issue that dkms-570 wasn't configured correctly. went through deleting everything in the -l output one by one. this time the -l thing didn't return anything, so then I tried running
sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall’ again. which returned the same issue, with dkms-570 not being configured
well that cleared up the wall of errors, but the drivers still aren’t installing.
Since the outputs are a lot cleaner, I can actually read some of them. it seems like nvidia-570 isn’t installing because of a dependency problem; that being it needs nvidia-dkms-570, which is present but unconfigured. at least that’s how I’m interpreting it.
edit: also, I don’t know how to fix that.
I have no idea what that even is, much less how it got there. is the only thing I need to do is to delete that file?
I have a GeForce GTX 1070 graphics card. `sudo ububtu-drivers devices’ returns nvidia 570 as the recommended one.
neither set of instructions seem to work. at this point I’m going to open a help thread on the pop os community
found out it’s a Nvidia drivers issue. don’t know how to fix it though, besides reinstalling an older one.
Yes, and as a matter of fact it is a drivers issue. Trying to update to nvidia 570 results in the display going dark and never coming back. Doing it through the terminal with system76’s recommended drivers, it fails to install 570, seems like a file didn’t download or unpack correctly or something. Not quite sure how to fix it
fair enough. I didn’t like the layout very much, but I stuck with it because I heard it’s better for gaming than mint. starting to regret that decision
well right now, pop os boots into a black screen with a blinking terminal entry underscore, except I can’t actually type any inputs. going into recovery mode and running sudo fsck
doesn’t do anything to fix it, or even return any useful info about what might be wrong.
edit: or at least, I think it isnt. I don’t really know how to use the tool
wait holy fuck 0^0 does equal 1, wtf. how?
for me it’s the general art style and feel. it just feels like AI. I know isn’t a particularly rigorous evaluation, but this in particular screams it, at least to me.
hence why I refuse to go to Korean barbecues, or whatever that entire genre of restaurant is called where they make you cook your own food
Didn’t work :/
brilliant comment /genuine
