how to install the new nvidia-xconfig-1.0.tar.gz utility

[danmarius1981]

Hello everybody,


Nvidia now provides a utility to easy configure the X server configuration file (besides the manual configuration). It is provided as a tar.gz file and it can be downloaded from here:


http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_ia32_96.43.16.html


I used the standard procedure to install such files:




unpack the archive
change directory as root into the unpacked archive
./configure
make
make install


but it did not work. After the ./configure command it says that it cannot find scuh file or directory.



I am using Ubuntu 9.10. My video card is GeForce 4 MX and the driver is 96.43.13.
The archive does not provide any install instructions.


Guys, any help would be highly appreciated!

...the safe way in installing apps/drivers is thru synaptic, dependencies provided automatically. also...under system>administration, you could have installed the nvidia driver by clicking hardaware drivers...
