Thanks Neil! I'll be hitting you up when I delve a little more into the Mint installation, pretty soon. Ubuntu on the internal spinning HD is my sandbox right now, as I concurrently have my Macbook Pro to ride me through the transition. So far, I've put Mint xfce on a USB3 flash stick booting up

[Nuke-users] Any good 3d tracking outsourcing recommendations?

2016-01-07 Thread Michael Garrett
In the spirit of the canvassing for opinions on roto outsourcing, I'm looking to know more about 3d tracking outsourcing options. Not sure if I can get around the NDA issue on the current project, but worth inquiring. MPC Bangalore doesn't count ;) Cheers, Michael

Hi I went through this with mint xfce 17 Basically I found that just installing the nvidia drivers using the mint installation didn't cut it. The right thing to do is download and install the Cuda drivers which are on the nvidia site. This sets up everything perfectly, and installs the
