ok, you have a Device-1: NVIDIA GF119 [GeForce 605] vendor: Bitland Information, according to >> https://us.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/ ... chips.html >> you need the 390 driver (with 390.143 being the latest release). So follow the Debian Nvidia Guide for install (remember LMDE4 is based on Debian 10 'Buster') >> https://wiki.debian.org/NvidiaGraphicsD ... cy_GPUs.29.

I'm still the same, I have two monitors and you only see one

root@dev:/etc/apt/sources.list.d# aptitude install nvidia-legacy-390xx-driver firmware-misc-nonfree
nvidia-legacy-390xx-driver is already installed in the requested version (390.143-1 ~ deb10u1)

i am using lmde4 and it won't let me use ppa

root @ dev: /etc/apt/sources.list.d# sudo add-apt-repository ppa: graphics-drivers / ppa

Adding PPA is not supported

[Tenebris_Umbra]

Sometimes Nvidia doesn't blacklist nouveau correctly. Try >> sudo echo 'blacklist nouveau' | sudo tee --append /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf && sudo update-initramfs -u

You can also run >>> dkms status

To see if the module was built correctly, output should look like this >> nvidia-legacy-390xx, 390.143, 5.10.0-0.bpo.8-amd64, x86_64: installed

[cexxxar88]

that message threw me the pc

Whoa... you have 4 Nvidia drivers installed 340/390/450/460, I'd uninstall all of them but 390.

You may use synaptic to do that or remove them all at once and start over.

if that's the case >> sudo apt-get purge nvidia* && sudo apt-get autoremove

reboot and then https://wiki.debian.org/NvidiaGraphicsD ... cy_GPUs.29 again

Also:
sudo apt-get install plymouth plymouth-label

should fix the other issue

I still can't detect the second screen of the pc, I already did what it told me

so do a >> inxi -Fxz

to see if nvidia loaded, it should look like this >>> Display: x11 server: X.Org 1.20.4 driver: loaded: nvidia

then use the nvidia x-server settings applet

if not installed >> sudo apt-get install nvidia-settings-legacy-390xx

then run nvidia x-server settings applet and look under x server display configuration
