GTX 1060 ON EXP GDC HELP!!!

[TeraBot452]

Yesterday I got a gtx 1060 6gb OC for $50 to use with my 8250u computer via the EXP GDC.  But I am on linux specifically arch.  (I Have already asked on egpu.io no response)

 

Apparently the GTX 1060 on the exp gdc requires a really old driver to function.  There is no way I can get this driver on linux.  The dock has not come yet but can I install the latest NVIDIA driver.  I am on Linux and am going to be using a external display.  Is the 368.81 driver issue only on windows?  Or is my dream of using this 1060 dead.

 

 

Just some info:  I think that you have to use the old driver cause of a error 43.  Or the card not being recognized.

I am going to be using NGFF to the video card.

My laptop does not have a dGPU in it.

 

Please comment if you have done this or know anything about it.

 

Thanks In advance.
