Hello list,
Running buster + backports.
Instaled nvidia from an alternate source an ran into problems because
not packaged for Debian.
Probem is I cannot uninstall old version because dpkg halts:
|Welcome to the NVIDIA Software Installer for Unix/Linux
Detected 8 CPUs online; setting concurrency level to 8.
If you plan to no longer use the NVIDIA driver, you should make sure
that no X screens
are configured to use the NVIDIA X driver in your X configuration file.
If you used
nvidia-xconfig to configure X, it may have created a backup of your original
configuration. Would you like to run `nvidia-xconfig
--restore-original-backup` to
attempt restoration of the original X configuration file?
[default: (N)o]: N
