I attached the required files.<div><br></div><div>additionally, i should point out that I did not get the nvidia driver from the debian repositoire, so maybe my bug report might not interest you. (I did not know that the bug was related to the graphical card driver). NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-260.19.29.run was what i used to first get the driver working and the instructions I found in the internet (which were basically, use the right version of the gcc compiler -- I attached them as well). I did so because last year I had no success in getting the nvidia card working properly using debian packages. </div>
