You should probably use the longer one, "0000:00:0d.0"

Also, if you would put listings etc in code blocks, i.e. within a pair of [code] and [/code], it'd be easier to read.

AlexLikeRock · 2017-02-26 05:45:42

tanks for a answer.

not work with

BusID "PCI:0000:00:0d.0"

at /etc/X11/xorg.conf

and not work with comment (#) BusID line.

ralph.ronnquist · 2017-02-26 06:38:28

Perhaps it's ok to remove the BusID phrase instead?

AlexLikeRock · 2017-02-26 06:48:36

yes , i remove line
BusID "PCI:00:0d.0"

and not work

ralph.ronnquist · 2017-02-26 07:01:29

I saw on IRC that you've done many things trying to get it to work.
What does dmesg say now?

AlexLikeRock · 2017-02-26 07:45:05

[ SOLUTION]

I HAD instaled mixed

some libraries of 375.39, nvidia-legacy-304xx-alternative and nvidia-legacy-340xx-alternative ,

well nvidia-legacy-304xx-alternative and nvidia-legacy-340xx-alternative install today,
375 time ago...

SOLUTION:
remove all with

   aptitude purge ~i~nnvidia

   apt-get install nvidia-legacy-304xx-kernel-dkms   nvidia-xconfig

   nvidia-xconfig

# reboot

tanks for help me

and tanks to <somiaj> of #debian

`apt search nivida | grep legacy` should give you the likely set of packages you need for that configuration, and more then likely you need to remove all the manual config and let xorg sort it for you..

golinux · 2017-02-26 16:40:30

I suggested to him that he use sgfxi to auto-sort out the drivers. Don't know that he ever did. Disclaimer: I have not had to do this for several years - using on board graphics atm. But it always worked perfectly for my old nVidia card.
