This repo is dedicated to all the scripts I write to make my Akitio Node eGPU run as smoothly as possible on Linux, OSX and Windoze.
Linux will be fairly Ubuntu-specific, not because I love Ubuntu, but simply because it's what I use everyday for work.
This entire repo will be very NVidia-specific. I don't have an AMD GPU and don't plan to purchase one.
- nvidia-387 and nvidia-prime
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install nvidia-387 nvidia-prime
- kernel 4.10 and newer (older kernels may work, but not tested)

This is for hotplugging in Ubuntu. Run the script, follow the prompts.
For EXTERNAL MONITOR ONLY. Don't expect any internal monitor fancyness, I haven't gotten that far yet.
