    Nvidia 460 gtx install driver + nvidia-settings black screen

    Hello,
    thank u for the great forum support here,
    i got a new computer, installed kali and everything perfectly,
    got to the nvidia driver, too much info and different ways on the web, i got lost but one of the ways actually worked,
    think the driver got installed correctly, but i got this massage
    the nvidia driver is not yet configured it needs to be enabled in xorg.conf before it can be used

    anyway i rebooted, graphics seemed to get better,
    then i installed nvidia-settings using apt-get install
    rebooted,
    black screen
    tried everything to fix it including deleting xorg.conf file, didn't work because there was no xorg.conf file at etc/*/X11/

    anyway i reinstalled kali linux,


    i used this
    http://www.cyberciti.biz/howto/debia...y-unix-driver/

    after i stopped the gnome interface using /etc/init.d/gdm3 stop
    installed nvidia
    reboot
    i log in into the single user page, not gnome

    the following code:
    /etc/init.d/gdm3 start

    returns:
    fail starting gnomr fisplay manager: gdm3 failed!

    now i'm lost
