 +  * The debian packages do not work well. Use NVidia Drivers from: http://www.nvidia.de/object/unix-de.html
 +  * Uninstall all other Drivers: apt remove --purge nvidia-*
 +  * For older cards, you need older drivers!  304.135 OR Version 340.102 - depending on the series (check lspci)
 +  * If the module cannot be compiled, because of gcc version mismatches, install the correct version and set this one as default:
 +
 +  update-alternatives --config gcc # complains about missing alternatives. So install them:
 +  update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/gcc gcc /usr/bin/gcc-4.8 10
 +  update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/gcc gcc /usr/bin/gcc-6 20
 +  update-alternatives --config gcc # should work now
