I just installed Ubuntu (the more mainstream ofnlinux distros) to replace my windows OS. I was greeted by a cryptic error. After a quick search for some tecno bable, i had to start on safe mode and install the video drivers.

Do you think a "regular user" would be able to do this?

Is your video card Nvidia by curiosity?

[–] dwalin@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago

Yes, thats was the issue. I know about the proprietary drivers and the typical NVIDIA bullshit.
