Hey all,
I am doing a dedicated HTPC install with XBMC Kodi using the ubuntu 14.04 mini image.
In my setup I am running Kodi/XBMC directly on top of X without Unity/Gnome/KDE etc.
I need the Nvidia binary drivers in oder to get properly working VDPAU support. The problem is, when I go to install them, the dependencies are such, that it wants to install ALL of gnome and a ton of other stuff. See below:
htpc@HTPC-Virtual-01:~$ sudo apt-get install nvidia-352

I have temporarily worked around this by downloading the Nvidia binary blob directly from Nvidias webpage, and installed it by running their script.
The problem with this is that every time I upgrade the kernel (and sometimes this happens automatically through unattended security upgrades) I need to manually go back, and reinstall the driver, in order for it to recompile the module for the new kernel.
When you install the driver through the package manager, the module gets recompiled automatically when needed...
Is there any way to install the nvidia driver in apt, without having it pull in this horrendously long list of dependencies?
Much obliged,
Matt

Abort.
I have temporarily worked around this by downloading the Nvidia binary blob directly from Nvidias webpage, and installed it by running their script.
The problem with this is that every time I upgrade the kernel (and sometimes this happens automatically through unattended security upgrades) I need to manually go back, and reinstall the driver, in order for it to recompile the module for the new kernel.
When you install the driver through the package manager, the module gets recompiled automatically when needed...
Is there any way to install the nvidia driver in apt, without having it pull in this horrendously long list of dependencies?
Much obliged,
Matt
