I appreciate your taking the time and trouble Boo.
Mind you everything up to 415 now installs for me and looks good. They just won't give me a rez above 1920.
340's alone can give me 4K
After quite a bit of nosing around I have come to the conclusion that my 670 card is dated (How the hell did that happen?)
That my cards last driver set is the 340's. It should be the 390's as 390 are the last drivers for "Fermi " cards.
It may be that as mine is a FTW (For the win) card it...
As a rule I try and match them up...but that's just me. I'd say that as long as your backup drive can hold everything you want to back up your fine.
As you have only use a small percentage and SSD are a mite expensive
I'd go for a 256 gig drive. You can back up to it now. and later if you want...
I can restore my entire system, and my content in under 15 minutes.
Without my music. (Music 35 gigs) I keep on a separate drive to speed up my backups and restores.
Back ups right now are running 17 gigs.
There's nothing like a backup to stiffen your spine and put steel in your eyes!
Back up...
Ton's of ssd externals one the market all aizes .You can boot from them or just add them as extra space when your hard drive fills up.
And yes you can back up your current system to them, been dong it for a raccoon's age.":O}
I went into package manger and ripped out anything that said nvidia and rebooted. Then I installed the 410 stuck at 1920 rez. So I go to Mint drivers
non proprietary
reboot and go back to pm and install everything that says 410
then installed the 410 drivers from device manger.
reboot looks...
I dumped everything that said nvidia .
Then tried again same results which means no improvement.
When I tried the 304 drivers as nothing else works I get this message.
"
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
nvidia-304: Depends: x11-common (>= 1:7.0.0) but 1:7.7+19ubuntu7.1 is to be...
Many times with every driver available, they now install just fine. But none of them give me the 4K settings I'm use to running. They all top out for me a 1920/ Some really screw the pooch. turning every thing Green and Pink.
I even did an install from scratch and the 340 drivers I'm using did...
well done Boo!
Most of my efforts to revive fading hard ware fall short of your success,
But when something actually works if feels better than getting one new! ":O}
Your going to hate this answer George.":O}
Because it is arguably The safest mint to date.
Not to say earlier releases weren't save.
But the newest mint's contain the newest
security measures.
George do you need a back up drive? I have several I no longer use having gone SSD my last build...
All I know for sure of him is that we laid low a thousand cowboys before we turned 5 and our horses always came when we called.
Neither of us had any use for Dale Evens. ":O}
Everyone pick up around the campground ahead of an expected snow delivery.
Got 6 inches that has since melted off. Weather here is rather tricky, seems to be always less or more than predicted.
But the River is up. Hard to tell by how much as there is room for it to spread out a bit before...
