Request for additional Nouveau drives in Repository
#1
I have an Acer computer that, when it had Windows 7 on it, came with proprietary nVidia drivers. Here's the problem. The Nouveau driver with Linux Lite doesn't work. When you open up a web browser the system freezes & the graphics go crazy. The legacy nVidia driver (304) that you can add is OK, but not great. Graphics look washed out. When I install Xubuntu 16.04, or 17.04 the Nouveau driver that comes with that system work perfectly. As it & Linux Lite are both Ubuntu based, can those drivers be added to the Repository? Or perhaps a better question is, do they work with Linux Lite? Here's the information on that:
Here is the Linux Lite Drivers:
xserver-xorg-video-nouveau 1:1.0-12-1build2
Libdrm-nouveau2 2.4.70-1 ubuntu 16.04.1

Here are the Xubuntu 17.04 Drivers:
xserver-xorg-video-nouveau 1:1.0-14-Oubuntu1
Libdrm-nouveau2 2.4.76-1

I have no idea if these drivers will work with Linux Lite, but as always, thanks for considering it.
