<Solved>Software Rendering issue

Post by akaliakbar »

Pretty much new to Linux Mint. Was installing all the updates and started to install wine and a few other things. Installed I thought nvidia drivers. Everything working fine. Boot the PC up the next day and I get the Software Rendering msg. I have tried a few of the things I found on the forums before starting this thread. So any help would be greatly appreciated, as im wanting to make the switch from Win10 to LMDE. Thanks
