in my experience you have to keep a copy if the edited version of the nvidia-installer.sh in case you put an update. So far the update process will always overwrite your version, so before you reboot after an update put your own version of the file back there.

followed seth's directions and no more artifacts, I've got myth issues, but they are more related to merging myth .24 fixes into LMCE

Seth, I believe the number of times you have helped me both directly and indirectly is now probably in the hundreds. I thank you, sir.

No more artifacts as of yet.

Cheers,
Matt.

You're welcome.
I can not contribute much to this project, but anything I can do to help, I am more than happy to oblige.

Glad it worked for you.

Best Regards,

Seth
