- Download NVIDIA-Linux-x86-96.43.09-pkg1.run (or the other one if you're running a 64 bit system) to your home folder (/home/simon/ for me) - switch to pty1 (CTRL+ALT+F1) - log in - sudo service kdm stop (will kill X server) (or gdm if you are running gnome) - sudo sh ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86-96.43.09-pkg1.run - say yes to everything (will compile nvidia kernel module) - sudo reboot now (reboot now !!)
And that should be enough, login and check that "glxinfo | grep direct" says "YES" Worked for me, kubuntu 8.10 32 bits, old geforce TI 4200 Good luck !
