kerberos_, you may see audio indicators moving, but do you hear anything, that's the test of course
kerberos_ 2017-03-08 02:46:44
BluesKaj: I can see audio indicators for "unplugged" HDMI audio output) but I can't hear enything
tw 2017-03-08 02:46:56
kerberos_: if it doesn't show as plugged in, I don't know how to get it to rescan the connection or force it into a connected state.

Mortvert 2017-03-08 03:10:45
I don't run debian or any other linux distro on any of my machines yet

BluesKaj 2017-03-08 03:10:45
kerberos_, that's quite a gpu there, you should be able to setup your video with out any flickering with OpenGL 3.1 setting and install the recommended nvidia driver for you gpu ..that should solve any flickering
petn-randall 2017-03-08 03:10:45
Mortvert: Sorry, this is the one ^^^
TomTomTo1 2017-03-08 03:32:21
kerberos_: "usually" where exactly?
BluesKaj 2017-03-08 03:32:28
kerberos_, ok, in the terminal , sudo apt install dkms nvidia-detect
kerberos_ 2017-03-08 03:33:23
BluesKaj: done
BluesKaj 2017-03-08 03:33:32

BluesKaj: I install nvidia-detect
kerberos_ 2017-03-08 03:34:06
BluesKaj: and I run nvidia-detect from terminal
kerberos_ 2017-03-08 03:34:10
BluesKaj: output: nvidia-detect Detected NVIDIA GPUs: 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: NVIDIA Corporation Device [10de:1b80] (rev a1) Your card is only supported by a newer driver that is available in jessie-backports. See http://backports.debian.org for instructions how to use backports. You may also find newer driver packages in experimental. It is recommended to install the nvidia-driver/jessie-backports
BluesKaj 2017-03-08 03:34:31
and dkms ?
kerberos_ 2017-03-08 03:34:55
BluesKaj: sorry, I run sudo apt install dkms nvidia-detect
kerberos_ 2017-03-08 03:35:19
BluesKaj: and Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done dkms is already the newest version.

BluesKaj 2017-03-08 03:37:57
ok kerberos_ time for a a learning curve on your part, if you intend to maintain your OS then keeping the corecte drivers upgraded is an important part of it. so read the url http://backports.debian.org
kerberos_ 2017-03-08 03:38:21
BluesKaj: I already did it, it's the reason why I have backports in my sources list
kerberos_ 2017-03-08 03:39:48
BluesKaj: my questions is, should I run now "apt-get -t jessie-backports install nvidia-driver/jessie-backports"
BluesKaj 2017-03-08 03:42:05
kerberos_, run sudo nvidia-detect , and don't post the output here only the name of the driver like nvidia-375 or ..
