Frankenstein meets Linux Mint (Tara)

A match made on a slab in a lab ;)

Honestly of all the versions this is the one that worked without any issues. Now the only thing to try is installing the Nvidia driver and trying out some games or whatever.

Save Image View Image

header=[Image Viewer] body=[The image viewer allows you to view the image full screen. You can also use the image viewer to zoom in or out.<br/>Instructions:<br/>Once the viewer is open you will see the image adjusted to your screen size. To close the image us the X button top right or left click on the image, double left click to close in zoom mode. To use the zoom feature us the zoom button top left. In zoom mode the bottom right of your screen will show an indicator of what part of the image you can see. You can use the scroll wheel of your mouse to zoom in and out. You can click and hold the left mouse button on the image and drag it to move the viewer around the zoomed image if it is larger than the screen size. You can exit zoom mode by clicking the zoom button top left to exit it, or exit the viewer completely with a double left click.]

Yeah, tried them all. Luckily it's such an easy, free, and quick installation.

>>35213 There's probably some bizarre command line instructions you have to use to make it work. It is Linux after all :D

Well fuck me sideways. Got some upgrades and had to restart only to find out the graphics drivers didn't work anymore :(
Tried all the solutions but none worked. Stuck on internal (intel) graphics.
And of course I forgot to make a backup, silly me. Oh well, lesson learned..back to reinstall the OS <sigh>

ps: It was on some Open Source driver which worked, I switched after it installed some updates to the Nvidia driver and at the restart I got the message it used the 3D accelerated chip (Intel). I couldn't change to the other drivers either. Removing those and reinstalling didn't work either. After an hour of messing about I just gave up. Back to a fresh install.

I've found the Nvidia drivers to be unstable on linux in the past, but I tried in a while so maybe it's better now.
I haven't tried any games on linux, might be worth a try :)
