    Unhappy Nvidia 850M drivers not working

    Hi, I have a Nvidia 850M graphics card. I followed the guide for installing nvidia drivers http://docs.kali.org/general-use/ins...-on-kali-linux

    All worked fine, building kernel module and etc

    When I give glxinfo I receive :

    Code:
    name of display: :0.0
    Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
    Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
    Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
    Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
    Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
    Error: couldn't find RGB GLX visual or fbconfig
    
    Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
    Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
    Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
    Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
    Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
    Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
    It feels like drivers not installed, I disabled noveau. I even tried to install drivers from nvidia website manually but I got error building the kernel module ( I removed kali nvidia drivers by purging them )

    Now I am back with kali nvidia drivers, but they don't seem to work for me. Any tips ?

    Thank you
