Nvidia Graphic's Driver? - iJack - Jul 9, 2016
I want to use Kali Linux as my main distribution, and was wondering if anyone knew how to get Nvidia's Graphic Driver working on Kali 2.0
Also are there any reason to <not> use this as my main distribution?

Many reasons to not use it as a main Distro.
Most graphics drivers are built especially for Windows.
Gaming on Kali or any Linux for that matter is close to useless as the graphics will be fucked, startup will be fucked. Etc. Most games are not ported to Linux.
I'd suggest dual booting, Win for games, Linux for whatever else.

Hi there, please follow this regarding the Nvidia Drivers.
And to answer your question on any reasons not to use Kali as the main OS, I would recommend dual booting it or running it inside a VM, not use it as your main OS as Kali Linux is a security distribution made for penetration testing and should only be used when needed.
For a Linux OS to use on a daily basis I would recommend using something like Ubuntu etc.
