[OpenIndiana-discuss] Nvidia card installed.. now lightdm fails

[bscuk2]

Hello,

This is a problem I encountered installing a driver update for a EVEA 
GTX1060.I tried a number of drivers before getting success with 
396.24.You may check the version of xorg video compatibility with the 
driver. A number of bugs and work rounds are listed in the Nvidia 
support forum.

regards,


Robert
