From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

800M is weird. It's Fermi, Kepler and Maxwell. You need to look up your specific gpu to see what architecture it uses.
Edit: It's even stupider than I thought. Some of the 800M series are either Fermi or Kepler. Like the 820M is both. You need to make sure the GPU family is Maxwell or Kepler.
Thanks for answers I did figure out this mess 840M is Maxwell GPU so it should work.
The best source for GPU architecture can be noveneau site as it list by generations.
The 800M series is first generation Maxwell architecture, if that is your question (basically slightly upgraded processors from the 700 series rebranded for mobile). All but the early 860M which is still Kepler for some reason. Nvidia numbering is weird.

820M is Fermi and Kepler. Same with the 810M. As if that makes any fucking sense.
I remembered it being stupid, I didn't realize it was that stupid.
