16.04 can't install nvidia driver
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ margin-bottom:0;
}
Edited: Swapped the card for a replacement has fixed the video output problem, but I still can't install the nvidia drivers.
Ubuntu details reports my graphics as NVD9
Ubuntu's Additional Drivers page shows GF119 (NVS 310) with X.Org X Server as the current driver. Trying to switch it just defaults back to that. Nvidia drivers 304, 340 & 384 all show up, but can't be switched to.
If I try to apt-get one of the nvidia packages, I get:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
nvidia-current : Depends: nvidia-304 but it is not going to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
Drilling down a few levels I end up with:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
libc6-i386 : Depends: libc6 (= 2.23-0ubuntu3) but 2.23-0ubuntu11 is to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
I don't have any held packages (sudo apt-mark showhold returns nothing)
Downgrading libc6 seems impractical, (and would include removing 180+ other packages and seems likely to break the development environment on the computer). I've tried, among other things, the instructions listed elsewhere on Ask Ubuntu with no luck: no errors until the first one above.
Additionally, a similar question included a request for this information:
user@box:~$ dpkg --print-architecture

user@box:~$ dpkg --print-foreign-architectures

user@box:~$ apt-cache policy nvidia-384 lib32gcc1 libc6-i386
