Usually you can install the nvidia-settings package to control it's resolution etc, but as per Dave's suggestion, the nouveau driver is probably a better bet on that card and will enable the standard system utilities to control it. |

| 1442502 | 2017-11-24 23:42:00 | Is there a problem here::::: ? 8440 Looks like something's broken. What the heck are you doing? You only need to be using the additional drivers utility not dredging around github, you'll break your system if you aren't careful. |

| 1442503 | 2017-11-24 23:45:00 | OK that is an older, poorly supported iGPU I would try the xorg/nouveau driver and see if that works any better. You do not need to change anything in the second screenshot. You sent me to here : xorg/nouveau ---- and that's what happened..... |

| 1442504 | 2017-11-24 23:49:00 | You sent me to here : xorg/nouveau ---- and that's what happened..... No I didn't I suggested you install the xorg/nouveau driver from the additional drivers utility that is where we were working, I made no mention of github at all. |

| 1442505 | 2017-11-24 23:50:00 | OK - my bad. I never tried to install it thankfully then. | SurferJoe46 (51) | ||
| 1442506 | 2017-11-24 23:52:00 | No worries, perhaps I should have been clearer here is what I meant for you to install: |

| 1442507 | 2017-11-24 23:57:00 | I should use the second one then? (I'll wait for confirmation) |

| 1442508 | 2017-11-25 00:01:00 | Yes, try the second one. | KarameaDave (15222) | ||
