| sem | tomreyn: hey let me know if I'm muddying the waters... Might be better if I don't confuse things | 14:31 |
| tomreyn | sem: i'm glad you're helping, too, thanks | 14:31 |
| sem | Glad to hear it :) | 14:33 |
| tomreyn | sem: hope you don't mind me pushing it over to you? i want to have some food and i think you'll be able to help them just fine. | 14:54 |
| sem | Not at all! | 14:54 |
| sem | If it's more complicate than sudo ubuntu-drivers install I'll run into trouble though | 14:55 |
| tomreyn | cool, thanks. personally, i'd just try sudo ubuntu-drivers install (so try the autoinstall) and hope this selects the right driver series and it just works after reboot | 14:55 |
| tomreyn | if this would not work i'd have them sudo apt purge nvidia* again and then find out which GPU they actually have: lspci -knnd ::0300 | nc termbin.com 9999 | 14:56 |
| tomreyn | and then check the nvidia website to try to understand which driver series they recommend for this very model (which is a pain) | 14:57 |
| tomreyn | and then have them install that very series | 14:57 |
| tomreyn | so, for example: sudo ubuntu-drivers install nvidia:535 | 14:57 |
| tomreyn | good luck, bbl | 14:58 |
| tomreyn | you can have them run export LANG=en_US.UTF-8 or just export LANG= to get english output, i would think | 15:01 |
| sem | lspci isn't showing his nvidia card. At this point I suspect hardware but advised him to try lspci on the live usb and possibly reinstall if that works | 15:37 |
| tomreyn | sem: sorry, the command i provided would only list the first gpu. you could have used lspci -nn | nc termbin.com 9999 instead, this would show all pci devices | 17:19 |
| sem | Oh well | 17:40 |
| sem | I almost asked him to run lspci | grep nvidia just in case because I didn't know what those lspci flags do. But at that point I forged ahead | 17:42 |
| sem | I thought he would share the termbin link but he didn't | 17:43 |
| tomreyn | thanks for taking over, though | 17:56 |
