Wiki page is a bit old. NVIDIA drivers requires binary kernel module. You have two options to install this module:
1. Upgrade your kernel to backported version and use precompiled NVIDIA binary kernel module: To do this first install new kernel with: apt-get install -t wheezy-backports linux-image-$(dpkg --print-architecture) Reboot your machine with new kernel and install nvidia-driver with: apt-get install -t wheezy-backports nvidia-driver nvidia-kernel-$(uname -r) 2. You can compile binary kernel module If you don't want to upgrade your kernel to backported version you need to compile nvidia-kernel driver for your current kernel. You need linux-headers for this: Install linux-headers with: apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r) And install nvidia drivers with: apt-get install -t wheezy-backports nvidia-driver nvidia-kernel-dkms I assumed you added backports to your sources.list On Thu, Feb 13, 2014 at 15:54:59 -0200, Markos wrote: > Dear, > > Thanks for the tip about backports. > > Now one more question . > > I am confused about which packages should I install . > > The site : > > https://wiki.debian.org/NvidiaGraphicsDrivers > > recommended to install the linux -headers and kernel module packages : > > linux -headers- $ aptitude- r install ( uname - r | sed ' s , [ ^ - > ] * - [ ^ - ] * - , , ' ) nvidia - kernel - dkms > > then install the nvidia-glx package and create the file / > etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-nvidia.conf with content : > > Section "Device " > Identifier " My GPU " > Driver " nvidia " > EndSection > > But on other sites , for example , at: > > http://www.fandigital.com/2012/05/install-nvidia-in-debian.html > > recommended to install the packages: > > apt- get install nvidia-glx nvidia-kernel-dkms nvidia-xconfig > nvidia-settings > > And do not mention the installation of linux-headers- ... > > And in other sites : > > http://gnutwoall.wordpress.com/2013/07/29/nvidia-no-debian-wheezy-mais-uma-vez/ > > recommends : > > # apt- get install build-essential dkms linux-headers-` uname -r` > > and then : > > # apt- get install nvidia-glx nvidia-installer-cleanup > libgl-nvidia-glx nvidia-alternative libxvmcnvidia1 > nvidia-kernel-dkms nvidia-support > nvidia-vdpau-driver xserver-xorg-video-nvidia nvidia-settings > nvidia-xconfig-table utils > > I am confused with so much information. > > Please some tips about the packages for card GT 750M. > > Thank you for your attention . > > Markos > > > -- > To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a > subject of "unsubscribe".
