| oldhardware | ok so i'm trying to get a GeForce 720m to work, wich means installing the old nvidia 390 drivers, wich are no longer available in the repos. Is there a repo in the Ubuntu family that has those drivers and needed dependancies? | 02:33 |

| Bashing-om | oldhardware: See: https://launchpad.net/~graphics-drivers/+archive/ubuntu/ppa . | 02:42 |
| tomreyn | nouveau might be another option, if you don't want to run unmantained software (which may be subject to security vulnerabilities) | 02:47 |
| oldhardware | besides the security vulnerabilities, i have now read that these drivers are incompatible with the current linux kernel? | 03:01 |
| oldhardware | being closed source, it seems nouveau might be the only option | 03:02 |
| oldhardware | i remember Manjaro allowed to use different kernels, i have no idea how it is today but i might try that if nothing else can be done | 03:03 |
| oldhardware | thank you both for the help | 03:12 |
