Just hit www.nvidia.com and get their binary driver.
I thought of that, but their new driver refuses to install unless I
halt
the X server, and I don't know how to do that yet. I tried a terminal
session, but it's no different.
It's not that hard. If you are already at run level 5, just do a "/
sbin/telinit 3". If the system has not booted yet, use the Grub
command "a" to append either a 1 or a 3 to the command line so that
you only go to runlevel 1 or 3. You can then install the Binary
Nvidia driver. To go (back) to run level 5, just do a "/sbin/telinit
5". All these commands have to be done as root, BTW.
