content: On a debian distribution, this is the way i install my drivers:  Open etc/apt/sources.list in a texteditor Add behind the deb and deb-src lines contrib non-free  ( So for example: deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ jessie main deb-src http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ jessie main will become  deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ jessie main contrib non-free deb-src http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ jessie main contrib non-free  ) In your terminal type: apt-get update And then you can install your nvidia drivers with the following terminal command: aptitude -r install linux-headers-$(uname -r|sed 's,[^-]*-[^-]*-,,') nvidia-kernel-dkms  *fixed command. thx nilleftw
