Beginners Questions • [Installation] Trying to install NVIDIA drivers

Then install the Nvidia drivers.

Thank you very much for your help. The installation is very long but it ends with these warnings:

Code:

Should I worry about that? Also, I am still unable to install nvidia-prime, but maybe this isn't necessary.
And I get this when running nvidia-smi:

Code:

nathanv@Bongstong:~$ nvidia-smiNVIDIA-SMI has failed because it couldn't communicate with the NVIDIA driver. Make sure that the latest NVIDIA driver is installed and running.

And I get some weird artefacts on my primary screen, not secondary though. The screen is in very good condition, and good quality, should I add how you did the thing? I am sorry, if I may be asking obvious questions, but I am a linux beginner and last
time that I tried to do it by myself I broke my system.
