Linux driver - Proprietary
For the latest proprietary drivers go to the NVIDIA Unix Drivers page.
Several users have experienced unreliability when using various versions of the proprietary NVIDIA drivers (specifically v185 installed by Ubuntu 9.10 and v190 from NVIDIA). However NVIDIA linux driver v195 should work correctly. Remember to check official repository of your distribution before installing from proprietary scripts (i.e. using # apt-get install kmod-nvidia or # yum install kmod-nvidia). If drivers don't work, switch back uninstalling the driver and try removing /etc/X11/xorg.conf if still doesn't work.
