I have a notebook with an NVIDIA GPU. What drivers do I need and where do I get them?

There are currently three nVidia module packages in the stable APT repository. Which one to use depends on the model of your video card: The first is the newest nvidia module (version 1.0.9755), which works on newer hardware but is not backward compatible. The other two are the legacy modules which work with "older" hardware. If you're unsure which legacy driver to use, there's a list of card model numbers which relate to each driver package at http://www.nvidia.com/object/IO_32667.

I hate the NVIDIA logo that appears with the new drivers. Can I remove it?

Sorcerer FAQ
Since nearly all compiled C programs depend on the glibc library attempting to install a new glibc on top of a previously installed glibc could fail. If you are not using /usr/local/lib for anything then start by cp -a /lib /usr/local. Make certain that /usr/local/lib is in /etc/ld.so.conf and then ldconfig. If the build fails and programs stop working then run ldconfig and try casting glibc again.

I am using the Linux NVIDIA drivers, but things aren't working properly. Can you help?

chromium B.S.U. ] - F.A.Q.
Most of the problems associated with the NVIDIA drivers can be attributed to an improper install. Unfortunately, most distributions are not following the Linux OpenGL ABI very well (if at all). This makes it virtually impossible for 3rd party vendors to provide easy-to-install drivers. First, carefully read the NVIDIA Linux FAQ, then verify the following: Do a 'locate libGL.so'. Verify that every libGL.so* on your system is the NVIDIA lib (in /usr/lib) or a symbolic link to the NVIDIA lib.
