How to Install Nvidia Drivers on LMDE 5/4
Linux Mint Debian Edition is, as most users that install it would know, based on Debian. By default, Debian does come with support for Nvidia drivers over the open-source nouveau drivers, which depending on the type of graphic card you have installed, would most likely work and improve the performance of your system, especially for games and users that do graphical design. But, for users with newer cards, even the default repository Nvidia drivers can often fall behind. Luckily, there are options for LMDE users to install the latest drivers using the Nvidia CUDA repository.
The following tutorial will teach you how to install Nvidia Graphic Drivers using default repositories and to install Nvidia drivers directly from Nvidia repositories on Linux Mint Debian Edition, with both open-source and proprietary drivers available.

VIM tutorial for beginners
The Vim editor (and its predecessor, vi) is a command line editor for Linux systems. It has a long standing reputation as being the most powerful text editor on Linux. After mastering it, many users will even claim that it is far speedier and more convenient to use than a typical GUI editor packed with lots of features in its menus.
Vim has a staggering number of features and functions, but they are all hidden behind keyboard shortcuts and commands. There are no menus or hints in Vim, as users are expected to have enough of a grasp to navigate around on their own. And this is where Vim’s learning curve turns off most new users from bothering with it. Many novices would rather stick with something simple, like nano, than deal with all Vim’s depth.
