I have a similar card ( GK208M [GeForce GT 740M] and a similar problem. I could not install the proprietary driver automatically. I am running Ubuntu 14.04 Gnome.
I solved it by installing something called Bumblebee, following these instructions: http://www.themukt.com/2014/06/13/howto-install-nvidia-331-bumblebee-optimus-cards-ubuntu I had to apt-get install virtualgl to run the tests at the end. Also, the package nvidia-settings-331 seems to have gone away so I didn't install it. There's some Ubuntu docs on this here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bumblebee Basically it uses the NVidia card to render things that are displayed by the Intel card. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1269232 Title: NVIDIA Corporation GK208M [GeForce GT 730M] [10de:1290] does not supported To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-319/+bug/1269232/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
