will the nvidia driver install today?

[sdowney717]

And how is it working out now for use?
I like to upgrade once a release hits beta.
But I need the nvidia driver to work.

8600gt and nvidia-current working fine here.

[sdowney717]

Thanks for that.
What version of the driver are you using?
How did you install it?

I am on 331.38 from xorg-edgers and 12.04

Working fine on this Nvidia Geforce 9800 GT. I have the Xorg edgers stable PPA installed.

[philinux]

Thanks for that.
What version of the driver are you using?
How did you install it?

I am on 331.38 from xorg-edgers and 12.04

nvidia-current from additional drivers.

I always run a vanilla install for testing.

[sdowney717]

I installed xorg-edgers ppa for 331 driver.
A few new things I had to learn with multiple monitors, you must use display properties as nvidia-settings dont apply.

So far it feels good this 14.04
