I am using Deepin OS 14.02 which is based on Ubuntu.
After removing the old 340 driver I went to install the latest one from the edgers repo and I get the following message:
The following packages have unmet dependencies: nvidia-libopencl1-346 : Conflicts: libopencl1 Conflicts: libopencl1:i386 ocl-icd-libopencl1 : Conflicts: libopencl1 ocl-icd-libopencl1:i386 : Conflicts: libopencl1 E: Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by held packages.
I tried multiple things before getting to this point like autoremove, autoclean, purge, update and upgrade. basically everything to get as clean as possible nvidia wise to install the latest one.
I googled a bit for this error and came across a command to maybe remove the conflicts like "libopencl1". I then got a message saying that it was a virtual package and it can't be removed.
What I also have gathered is that MAYBE it works better if I use the official nvidia installer ".run" file and stop my "lightdm" it's called?
Basically unloading the GUI and installing it from the terminal. I am a bit scared to do that because what if I do that and I still get the same message? Can I then still get into the OS graphically? I had issues in the past with Ubuntu and black screens after using the installer.
Does anyone know what is causing this issue? It seems so simple. Remove the conflicting packages and then it can install.
