Next I installed NVIDIA Kernel apt-get install nvidia-kernel-$(uname -r) Where -r means install all recommended packages as well.

Install Linux headers as those will be required to build NVIDIA Driver modules. If you’ve completed this part, move on to the next instruction.

apt-get update & apt-get upgrade -y & apt-get dist-upgrade -y Once I’ve added the correct Kali Official repositories, I’ve issued the following commands to update, upgrade and dist-upgrade my Kali Linux. Before you do anything, you of course add the Official Kali Linux repository. I’ve installed everything in a brand new Kali Linux 1.0.6 installation, fully updated and upgraded.

For example: lspci -nn | grep VGA My settings The NVIDIA driver graphics processing unit (GPU) series/codename of an installed video card can usually be identified using the lspci command. See the details about this driver in NVIDIA official website:ĭebian Linux usually ports that Official Driver to fit it’s requirements.

The binary NVIDIA drivers provide optimized hardware acceleration of OpenGL applications via a direct-rendering X Server for graphics cards using NVIDIA chip sets. Provided that you have the kernel header packages installed, the kernel module will be built for your running kernel and automatically rebuilt for any new kernel headers that are installed. The new Linux binary NVIDIA drivers nvidia-kernel-dkms builds the NVIDIA Xorg binary kernel module needed by NVIDIA driver, using DKMS. I’ve included as much details I can, including troubleshooting steps and checks but I would like to hear your part of the story, so leave a comment with your findings and issues. If you want GPU acceleration, (cudahashcat, GPU pass through etc.) keep reading and follow the second guide to complete your installation. You use the first guide to install NVIDIA Driver.
