Driver Installation
The nVidia Linux display driver (295.49) hasn't yet landed in a PPA, but you can install it manually with these commands under Ubuntu 12.04/11.10:
- Ubuntu 32-bit (i386):
cd ~/; mkdir nvidia295.49; cd nvidia295.49/
wget -O NVIDIA-Linux-x86-295.49.run http://goo.gl/1f9kc
chmod +x NVIDIA-Linux-x86-295.49.run
sudo sh ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86-295.49.run
- Ubuntu 64-bit (amd64):
cd ~/; mkdir nvidia295.49; cd nvidia295.49/
wget -O NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-295.49.run http://goo.gl/hg4Kz
chmod +x NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-295.49.run
sudo sh ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-295.49.run
