Code:inxi -G
With this fresh install, instead of going for the first listed option of nvidia-361 (proprietary, tested) in the Install Drivers, which 'froze' up the system, I chose the second option, nvidia-340 (proprietary), hence its appearance in last line of the inxi -G output below. The nvidia website lists nvidia-340 as being used for older nvidia cards, e.g. the nvidia-200 series, and it lists linux drivers up to the 370 series for GTX 870M, so am confused why 361 wont install.
Code:
Graphics: Card-1: Intel 4th Gen Core Processor Integrated Graphics Controller
Card-2: NVIDIA GK104M [GeForce GTX 870M]
Display Server: X.Org 1.18.3 driver: nvidia
Resolution: [email protected]
GLX Renderer: GeForce GTX 870M/PCIe/SSE2
GLX Version: 4.4.0 NVIDIA 340.96
Thanks Jerry.

64bit OS (32-bit on Samsung[i] netbook) installed in [i]Legacy mode on MBR-formatted SSDs (except pi which uses a micro SDHC card):
2017 - Raspberry pi 3B (4cores) ~ [email protected] - LibreElec, used for upgrading our Samsung TV (excellent for the task)
2012 - Lenovo G580 2689 (2cores; 4threads] ~ [email protected] - LL3.8/Win8.1 dual-boot (LL working smoothly)
2011 - Samsung NP-N145 Plus (1core; 2threads) ~ Intel Atom [email protected] - LL 3.8 32-bit (64-bit too 'laggy')
2008 - Asus X71Q (2cores) ~ Intel [email protected] - LL4.6/Win8.1 dual-boot, LL works fine with kernel 4.15
2007 - Dell Latitude D630 (2cores) ~ Intel [email protected] - LL4.6, works well with kernel 4.4; 4.15 doesn't work
