Yes, I’ve seen your other post, but didn’t have the time to look for until now.
And yes you are right, the nvidia installation is not running properly.
It looks like a backports driver from mx-repo should be installed without activating the backports for all dependencies.(So there is a problem which wasn’t there at least some month ago)
In short, what worked for me here actually without any problems despite all this,
open the baked in nvidia-installer from the terminal
sudo ddm-mx -i nvidia
You will be asked some questions, in your case for bumblebee and you will be asked for looking also in the backports. Say yes.
You will also be asked which driver to install normal or backports repo. Say backports.
This worked for me on antiX17.3.1
Graphics:
Device-1: Intel Xeon E3-1200 v3/4th Gen Core Processor Integrated Graphics

Device-2: NVIDIA GM206 [GeForce GTX 960] vendor: Micro-Star MSI driver: nvidia

What kind of hardware do you have?
BTW, this new driver from backports should build again the 4.20 kernel, I didn’t try until now.
