Hi, newbie here. I just need a solid step-by-step guide on actually what to install, because everywhere I go for advice is either people with different GPUs, or threads where people just say "I solved the problem!" and don't explain how :|

After running sudo lspci, this was the result

Code:

ratmonarch@ratmonarch:~/Downloads$ sudo lspci[sudo] password for ratmonarch: 00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation 3rd Gen Core processor DRAM Controller (rev 09)00:01.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation Xeon E3-1200 v2/3rd Gen Core processor PCI Express Root Port (rev 09)00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 3rd Gen Core processor Graphics Controller (rev 09)00:14.0 USB controller: Intel Corporation 7 Series/C210 Series Chipset Family USB xHCI Host Controller (rev 04)00:16.0 Communication controller: Intel Corporation 7 Series/C216 Chipset Family MEI Controller #1 (rev 04)00:1a.0 USB controller: Intel Corporation 7 Series/C216 Chipset Family USB Enhanced Host Controller #2 (rev 04)00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 7 Series/C216 Chipset Family High Definition Audio Controller (rev 04)00:1c.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 7 Series/C216 Chipset Family PCI Express Root Port 1 (rev c4)00:1c.1 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 7 Series/C210 Series Chipset Family PCI Express Root Port 2 (rev c4)00:1c.3 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 7 Series/C216 Chipset Family PCI Express Root Port 4 (rev c4)00:1d.0 USB controller: Intel Corporation 7 Series/C216 Chipset Family USB Enhanced Host Controller #1 (rev 04)00:1f.0 ISA bridge: Intel Corporation HM76 Express Chipset LPC Controller (rev 04)00:1f.2 SATA controller: Intel Corporation 7 Series Chipset Family 6-port SATA Controller [AHCI mode] (rev 04)00:1f.3 SMBus: Intel Corporation 7 Series/C216 Chipset Family SMBus Controller (rev 04)02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Qualcomm Atheros AR8161 Gigabit Ethernet (rev 08)03:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation Centrino Wireless-N 2200 (rev c4)04:00.0 System peripheral: JMicron Technology Corp. SD/MMC Host Controller (rev 30)04:00.2 SD Host controller: JMicron Technology Corp. Standard SD Host Controller (rev 30)04:00.3 System peripheral: JMicron Technology Corp. MS Host Controller (rev 30)04:00.4 System peripheral: JMicron Technology Corp. xD Host Controller (rev 30)
So I think it might not even be detecting the gpu?? Someone told me to install the official nvidia drivers from https://www.nvidia.com/download/driverR ... 717/en-us/, but i was given 2 errors when running the .run file:

Code:

WARNING: You do not appear to have an NVIDIA GPU supported by the 418.113 NVIDIA Linux graphics driver installed in this system.  For further details, please see the appendix SUPPORTED NVIDIA GRAPHICS CHIPS in the README available on the Linux driver download page at www.nvidia.com.
and

Code:

ERROR: Unable to find the development tool `cc` in your path; please make sure that you have the package 'gcc' installed.  If gcc is installed on your system, then please check that `cc` is in your PATH.
Thanks
