    Correct me if I'm wrong, but Nvidia drivers are still not 'officially supported' in Deepin - meaning, they're broken!

    I also had Nvidia drivers install successfully but would not work on a reboot - so with no Nvidia options either.  I'm back with Nouveau.

    It appears that they improved the Nvidia drivers presented in there driver manager in version 15.1
    I was able to install and test 2 of 3 the proprietary drivers.

    In Deepin 15.1 the 340.96 and 352.63 installed good with no extra configuration needed. 358.16 did not install right with my card and broke the system. In Deepin 15,  I could not get any of them to work.

    sgfxi completely screwed my Deepin 15.1 setup - after one successful reboot, where graphics resolution was set & remembered on reboot, next go, it would not boot at all, not even in recovery mode!  Luckily I had imaged the Deepin partition, so was back up pretty quickly, though I had to download all 460meg of updates again.  I learned my lesson - leave well enough alone!  Unless you're a games-player, Nouveau is perfectly adequate, at least for me.
