Display is not initialized on i5 3gen - gtx960 #512

Hi I wanted to install newest version of ChimeraOS, unfortunately it has some problem with (most likely) display initialization. My setup: i5-3450 GTX 960

I tried to do some troubleshooting but:

Web interface works, but since i have no luck with display init i cannot pass "Please enter the password shown on your display to continue". So i also cannot go straight into ssh because i cant add new ssh key.

I tried terminal directly on machine but it constantly switches me back to main screen (which has only blinking underscore) so its really hard to use it because i constantly need to switch back into TTY)

What i can do to grab some logs?

I used liveUSB to access files. There's messege that vulkan cannot be initialized. With this newest gamepadUI we need to stick with vulkan or there's way to go with openGL?

@alkazar Did we ever confirm if 900 series Nvidia worked? The last I tested with v37/v38 the GTX 970 had the same vulkan issue.

According to https://chimeraos.org/download/ that nvidia card is too old. Too bad, I'd also like to use a 960 for this.
