Hello.

I have installed the proprietary nvidia driver  352.79-2+deepin
Since I have installed the propietary drive because of graphic bugs in games steam does show this error :

OpenGL GLX extension is not supported by this display.

If I open the Nvidia X Server Settings I get this error:

You do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver.  Please edit your X configuration file (just run `nvidia-xconfig` as root), and restart the X server.

I have tried to run it in terminal but it does appear that the command does not exist.
If I install nvidia drivers manually downloaded from the nvidia site the xserver does not start anymore ,I am getting errors.

Does someone know any solution for this problem?

I am using Deepin 15.2 but I appeared in 15.1 too and I use a Nvidia 940M

install nvidia-xconfig with sudo apt-get install nvidia-xconfig, then run it like sudo nvidia-xconfig, reboot

So, if I understand you right, you have now installed drivers from nvidia site and drivers from deepin repository too? Uninstall all drivers first, then try this: sudo apt-get install nvidia-driver nvidia-xconfig, run sudo nvidia-xconfig, reboot

but you need to remove all drivers you installed before first

Now I have a fresh install of Deepin 15.2
I installed the nvidia drivers from the driver tool then I installed nvidia-xconfig and executed it, after reboot I got a black screen, if I remove the created config from /etc/X11/xcorg.conf I am able to get in the GUI again.

Ok. So your nvidia is not supported by drivers you using. Maybe this can help? What is output of this command:

glxinfo | grep vendor

Maybe will help someone to figure out what is the problem if you send us more infos about your graphics card.

There is no info about nvidia?
Output of this: lspci -nn | grep VGA
sudo apt install nvidia-detect

Output of this: sudo nvidia-detect

There will be suggestion if nvidia-detect will detect your card, so you can follow suggestion by nvidia-detect.

Maybe you should use deepin feedback and report your problem as is not so common IMHO?

Output of lspci -nn | grep VGA:

00:02.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Intel Corporation Sky Lake Integrated Graphics [8086:1916] (rev 07)

Seems that it only finds the integrated Intel Graphics chip
Nvidia detect detects no Nvidia GPUBut the driver manager of deepin detects my Nvidia GPU

I have had the same problem on my laptop with a GTX 860M, with the same architecture, maxwell. . I've already succeed on Debian to setup nivida-driver and bumblebee, but on Deepin I've tried everything and I've obtained nothing but a black screen, no GPU acceleration or X failed to start so I have given up.

Please tell me when Nvidia portable GPUs will be supported, thanks.

Thanks tristar but like I said — Deepin is not exactly Debian. This will not work, I've tried almost everything and I've never heard that someone have succeed to setup a Nvidia Optimus laptop on Deepin.

i'm also have 940M,but mine works well.
lspci -nn | grep 3D shows 01:00.0 3D controller [0302]: NVIDIA Corporation GM108M [GeForce 940M] [10de:1347] (rev a2)
And i'm using 352.79-2+deepin.
i follow https://wiki.deepin.org/index.php?title=%E6%98%BE%E5%8D%A1 ,and it works well.(you should first change to chinese by clicking  right-up earth icon,then click the link)

2. reboot
3.
optirun -b primus command

Good Luck.

Thank you for the suggestion now everything works, steam starts without error and Deepin recognizes my Nvidia Graphics Card with lspci -nn | grep 3D, I get the same outputs as you wanywhn.
