Re: Nvidia and source packages
Hello Stephen,
The NVidia driver packages aren't really 'src' packages they way you
are thinking of. Yeah, the name is kind of a misnomer. But if they
were 'src' packages I think the command you're looking for might be
'dpkg-deb --build'. Not certain because I haven't been using Debian
very long yet myself.
Regards,
Jimmy Richards
