What GPUs are you using? Assuming Linux Mint uses the Nauvoo drivers you should only have to enable these in your sources.list file: main contrib non-free non-free-firmware, and Nauvoo should be able to run Nvidia. I can vouch for GTX 1080 (bridged) working with the out of the box drivers. I think newer cards need the nvidia-driver package(s).
I watched the videos from Hayden, follow the first one’s advice and install from the terminal, it should grab all the dependencies for you.
