Hi guys, I've tried multiple Linux Lite latest version installations on my Fujitsu esprimo v6555, but they keep totally breaking after hanging a very long time on "configuring nvidia-340 (amd64)".
Totally unusable machine this way???. I used to run Ubuntu 14 lts dual boot with a long gone Windows 7 on it, but unfortunately Ubuntu's upgrade broke the os totally. So I've tried unsuccessfully several fresh installs of Ubuntu 20 lts and of Linux Lite running into Nvidia troubles(Single boot).
Looking through a lot of different distros documentation I've found an Hint?? : apparently my old machine might be better off with nvidia 304 driver than 340. With suggestion to do an installation through live usb's terminal.
Now I'd love to give that a go...
But I'm afraid I'm not competent enough to work out the way to do It.
Any kind creature that could feel like helping me out with a step-by-step path to try out there?
Thank you in advance
