Okay, this is not actually a help post, and it's not a bragging post, either. I am just so damned relieved that after 3 days of working on my Kali installation with my new PC, I finally got the nVidia GTX960 graphics card driver installed. I went through black screens and flashing screens and ended up re-installing Kali. In the process I discovered the usefulness of installing a backup program as well to save some of my customized configurations. :-( Finally, after 3 days of pure enjoyment (because I do enjoy these challenges), I have direct rendering and 3-D capabilities and, now, the ability to REALLY crack at a blistering speed using the GPU. I just wanted to share my joy and to say hello to the community again. :-) Later, peeps.
