Hi, I am running debian stretch and I have nvidia driver version 340.96 which supports opengl version 4.4 on the graphic card nvidia gtx 750 ti.
Out of curiosity I want to upgrade to opengl 4.5 --- which I think I should do by installing the proprietary driver on the nvidia website. 1. By doing this, I think I risk the stability of my system. But I dont know how. Please enlighten. 2. If I somehow, gather enough know-how to convince myself that I can take a calculated risk, is there a way to tell the debian packages, that I have fulfilled the requirements, and upgraded---thus, gracefully remove the specific packages, without breaking dependency. Thanks, r -- (B.V. Raghav)
