I installed nvidia from Debian "non-free" repo by following these instructions: http://wiki.debian.org/NvidiaGraphicsDrivers Just note that Debian packages for nvidia are a bit "outdated" so if you are using a brand-new card, you may experience some problems when using old drivers. For setting up "twinview" (dual displays) I had to Google a bit to find the right values to put in "/etc/X11/xorg.conf" file.
