Hello,
I have a nvidia gtx960 , I would like to use it's hevc encoding ability, However to do so, I need to have at least the nvidia 358 driver. The problem is that even in the backport repo, it is the 352 version.

Does anybody have any idea how to have a newer version ?

thank you very much

Please don't use PPA's in LMDE. They are for Mint's Ubuntu versions.

Shoot, I missed that it was for LMDE.... Sorry. I'll remove the text in my previous message.
