Adding NVidia Drivers

I've got a big bogged down with other stuff at teh moment. Today I had a chance to breakout and install those wonderful NVidia drivers into my setup. It you have a TNT2 GForce 5200/256, you might as well use it!!

Since NVidia drivers are licensed, you must use an installer outside of the Synaptic Manager to add them . To install you download the driver then type:-

sudo nvidia-glx-config enable

Then as if by magic you have a shiny new display. There are two commands that I always forget when playing around with Display Resolutions, but are handy to know;

cntl+alt++ switches between your stored resolutions
cntl+alt+bckspace reloads your X server.
