Ignore svmi - that's for VMs. Check the versions of smxi and sgfxi as I posted earlier to see if they were updated. If not, you can try:

very thank's, liquorix work! thank's all! great!
on step "install debian-nvidia, nvidia, nvidia beta" i choose debian-nvidia, and script install 340.96 from repositories. liquorix work with this
I want 352 or 355, but I'm afraid reinstall driver
if I remove all packages nvidia driver and install with sgfxi, it's normally?

sgfxi has now been updated with the new current stable, and 340 and 304 legacy drivers.

sgfxi removes all the debian nvidia packages when it installs the current stable, but you can also explicitly install the current nvidia debian package.

I never use the debian packages for nvidia myself, so I can't say more about them.

I can't install 352 or 355, sgfxi return unknow error
only 358.16 or 340.96 from repositories
with 358.16 steam always crush
I use from 340 from repo, it's not bad
thank's!

The drivers are all the same, that is, all debian does is wrap the nvidia non free driver into a debian package, and what sgfxi does is just install it directly. So if 358.16 is crashing, that's a driver bug, won't matter what you use to install it.

if 340 works, that's fine.

Actually, the 358.* series has a bug that causes steam to crash. If you run dmesg, you'll find a segmentation fault caused by an nvidia library. Nothing else you can really do, it happens randomly. Here's a workaround I came up with:



This will relaunch steam as soon as it crashes, mitigating the problem somewhat. It's enough for me that if I'm chatting with someone, at least steam restores itself quick enough that I can get back to the conversation before they realize I'm offline.

Anyway, not many people run bleeding edge nvidia drivers so it'll take a while before this bubbles up and nvidia fixes the bug.

crash not only steam, crash steam and games(
