[tl;dr below]
Hi guys, brand new to this forum, brand new to linux (Ubuntu 16.04), brand new to the tremendous tediousness of making things do what you want them to do outside of Windows 10 lol. I'd really appreciate some technical help here.
I got PlayOnLinux, and successfully installed League of Legends. Took about 10 times longer to load the game up than with Windows 10, then when it finally ran it was clearly rendering graphics with my CPU. About 0.5 frames per second, and I have a Intel® Core™ i7-4980HQ CPU! He's a fast little guy but he can't do what my GPU can do. I have an Nvidia Geforce GTX 980M. I've read several guides on the internet about how to install nvidia drivers (all completely different) and nothing has worked clearly. One of them used something called bumblebee (made my computer unable to log in), one installed driver using apt-get with a simple command, one required all these file modifications etc etc. Clearly nothing's worked.
tl;dr-
I have an MSI gt72 dominator laptop
I am running Ubuntu 16.04
Intel® Core™ i7-4980HQ
Nvidia Geforce GTX 980M
How do I get Nvidia drivers working??
Really appreciate any help guys, thanks in advance!
Can't figure out how to make Ubuntu 16.04 utilize my Nvidia graphics card :(
