i have my gtx 580 working "ok" with the nvidia linux driver. sadly it
throws an install error for every install since i ran the nvidia
driver. i dont have the machine in front of me right now to list the
specific error.
but the card itself is working well. i went with the nvidia driver
because the linux one at the time did no support the card.
