Tárgy: [DNG] How to install NVIDIA driver?
Hi All,

[Minimal install, Devuan ASCII w/ Trinity Desktop Environment (TDE)]

I’m trying to install NVIDIA drivers for a GTX 1060. I’m basically following
the Debian instructions [1], modified for Devuan and got to the last step,
which error-ed out. The summary of the error is:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
nvidia-driver : PreDepends: nvidia-installer-cleanup but it is not
installable

I’d also like someone to check if I’ve modified sources.list correctly.

Full command line output and error message below:

Thanks all,
Michael
