Hey All!

Can any one here give me some pointers on how to tweak my nvidia card?
Its probably some config file, but i cant seem to find it.. :(

What i would like, is to change the cards preferences, for AA/ Anisotropic filtering and such.. Basicly what you find under windows in the Nvidia settings..

Can i use the nvidia-settings package for this? If so, how??


Feeling very silly at the moment :-k

The nVidia-settings package has those options in it, in other distros I have used.

I expect the reason Ubuntu's nvidia-settings app does not have them, is because Ubuntu does not use the official nVidia drivers.

You may have to download the Ubuntu Kernel-source package for your Kernel (2.6.12?), Then install the nVidia drivers from a bash prompt.

Here is the Breezy Badger "HowTo".
