:o)=)
Since the drivers are proprietary, the debs download the NVIDIA-*.tar.gz
files from the nvidia site. You must do a tar zxvf nvidia-kernel-src in
/usr/src, make-kpkg modules_image in your kernel source dir and a
debian/rules build; fakeroot debian/rules binary in
/usr/src/nvidia-glx-1.0.2313 after download to get all the debs.
The debs take care of all the OpenGL/mesa library magic. Tweaking of
XF86Config-4 is needed, but straightforward after reading nvidia's
README in /usr/dic/nvidia-glx-src
Feel free to mail me/the list if you've got probs.
Kind regards, M.
