Hi everyone

I am sorry for being inactive for so long. The latest nvidia driver was not there in the regular AHS repo.

So I was inactive coz I shifted from MX Linux to Pop OS which worked perfectly right out of the box(except for having to install GRUB). No issues with Nvidia drivers either ...

I don’t think I remember anything like that. Synaptic manager and package manager never run together and I have not installed a thing on my distro for now...

Sorry, I did not understand that those were commands what had to be run. Please tell me which windows (I guess version) think it i to type. I mean do I run Windows 20XX or a particular version?

My windows version is 2004. I am sure coz I use WSL 2 in it.

Switching back to 5.6 for now. Also please help me install the GPU drivers as I do some work in Video and Photo editing
