can anyone tell me how to download the newest 64 bit driver via gui? as after my upgrade from 9.10 i am stuck with gui..

i found codes for installing it in gui so that should be ok, but ive not found any codes for downloading it..although from what ive seen it should not be too hard..

:confused:

think i found a way around it..by using a live cd and then using kdesudo dolphin to move the file to the home folder and install it from there...will try now, if it works i will label this as solved...
