[SOLVED] After switching to the nvidia driver, the xfce setup is messed up

<< < (2/3) > >>

Jerry:
P.S. during your first batch of updates, if the updates stop at any time just hit Enter for each prompt, don't type anything, just hit Enter each time.

Jerry:
No problemo, have fun :)

To be honest you're using a low end nvidia card, using the proprietary driver is of no benefit to you. The nouveau open source driver will be just fine. I'd back up your files and reinstall. 10 minutes of reinstall vs hours of frustration, up to you :)

Haha thanks for the help. Looks like it's a re-install. :/

Switched back to nouvea, will reboot now and get back to you. Honestly, thank you so much for replying to my post so quickly.

I rebooted and it's still default xfce :(
I think I might have to re-install but I really don't want to have to re-install all my programs I've installed.
