Installing the NVIDIA Vidyah driver in Ubuntu 7.10
Here I will tell you how to install the driver on NVIDIA cards quickly and without problems. In general, everyone is advised to install pens - I propose to use a cool tool called "Envy". She is the best way to properly install firewood (at least I haven’t yet seen any glitches), IMHO.
MANDATORY !!! Backing up X configurations: cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.mybackup
When you start Envy, we delete the existing drivers (“Uninstall NVIDIA Driver”).
If you ask for a reboot, we do.
We go again in Envy. Now install the driver (you need to connect to an Internet, because the installation program will download the necessary packages).
We recline on the back of the chair and wait for the end of the installation.
