Well this is really not solved, but I will close it anyway. So, what I did was I bought a new Nvidia graphics card, the GeForce GT 1030. I bought this because the Nvidia site said this card uses the 525.147.05 driver, which is in the Mx Repositiory. After installing the card, I used the Mx_Linux Nvi...

I discovered that installing the Nvidia graphics driver via Mx-Tools - Nvidia Driver Installer will install the Tesla Driver 470.223.02-4~deb12u1, but, that driver will NOT allow you to set the screen resolution higher than 1024x768. I currently use the screen resolution at 1920x1080 (16:9 ) at 75 H...

I used the Nvidia Driver Installer in MX-Tools and it recommended using the Nvidia-Tesla-470-driver. I used that driver but can't set display properties, even after a reboot. So I had to remove it and...

Update: FullScale4Me Didn't see you advice about installing deb-installer till after I played around. I followed the advice and installed deb-installer and it's in the Menu under MX-Tools. Now when I right click on the .deb package file, Deb Installer is there. Thanks to everyone for helping me sort...

I have done that and there's no option to select Deb Installer. What I think I have found is that, I right clicked on .deb file, clicked on " Other Application ". When that window appears, I searched for gdebi and Open with Deb installer. What I ended up doing is clicking on the file icon,...

@Charlie Brown I tried that but it's not listed as a choice under " Open with other app "
