RE: a very strange thing - MariusApo - 17th January 2017
well yes,i have the nvidia (geforce gtx 750 ti) driver 375.26 too with the 4.9.3 kernel and is all working without a problem,the packages that i uninstalled were the prime and the optimus,and i intalled the cdi driver and the other cdi too of the same 375.26,but the problem ocured be4 that uninstall and after,for the internet,i don't use a wifi device,i have a cable conection that goes to a hub (spliter) that goes to a rooter,the internet conection is the same that my motherboard comes with (qualcomm atheros killer e220x gigabit ethernet)

I didn't say WiFi, I said network device drivers, this includes Ethernet.
That Ethernet adaptor uses the alx kernel module, no need to use ndiswrapper with it.
However, it may require an updated version of ath10k-firmware.

i think i figured out why 4.10 kernel is not installing, i have on my pc 4 linux distros, and i tryed to install that kernel on the new zesty Ubuntu, on which i didn't installed nvidia driver, it runs on that neauvou driver, it did installed without a problem and it runs fine on that kernel (the rc4 version), that just made me think that maybe when was compiled was not nvidia driver included, i did installed again that kernel on neon, where i do have the nvidia driver installed and when i reboot the pc i got errors that it could not run the graphic driver (something like that).
as for the ethernet thing,thanks for the link, but i don't have a problem with it, it works perfect, is not a wifi version, as is a desktop pc, not a laptop
RE: a very strange thing - AJSlye - 17th January 2017
Again, I didn't say anything about it being a wifi adaptor. That chip set is for gigabit Ethernet and requires firmware for your particular revision that is evidently already provided.

well,i fallowed those instractions and yes those were already in my pc,so ? that means that i can uninstall ndiswrapper or what ? i really don't understand what is this fuss about with my ethernet card about....i still got error with ndiswrapper installing the kernel 4.9.4
RE: a very strange thing - AJSlye - 18th January 2017
Yes, it should be safe to remove it to avoid that error.
