Why does it have to be so incredibly hard to get an nvidia card to work under Linux? The driver is in available, we have the technology but every time I try to get this damned thing to work I end up in front of a fucked XServer and this stupid "Something went wrong" gdm screen only to apt-purge nvidia from my drive and start from the beginning once more.

Have you ensured the nvidia-kernel-dkms package is installed? What about the kernel headers? Are there any kernel modules left over? You might clean them up using dkms -l. Don't mix up the drivers from site and from pavkage, they lead to horrible results. Uninstall everything, the apt-get install nvidia-driver nvidia-kernel-dkms linux-headers-(your arch). Check the debian wiki as well

@NeatNerdPrime I'd just use windows.......

@ScribeOfGoD thou are not a god! You're a monster!!! How dare you, ypu satan-worshipper.

@ScribeOfGoD And risk Richard Stallman strangling me in my sleep? ^^

No, seriously, I use Linux because I need it, not because I'm one of those people who make a quasi religious thing out of it.

@NeatNerdPrime I followed the debian wiki (I'm not nearly good enough with Linux to work through something like that on my own) and I already added the kernel headers. I assume the problem lies somewhere in my xorg config since it recognises my card after I've installed the driver it just crashes my dm when it tries to start.

@NeatNerdPrime I've never said I was GoD, I use windows because Linux still has years if not decades to go to be as good as windows :p
