binutils ?


Hy,

I want to install an nvidia driver. whwn I execute the shell file, it comes to this:

Unable to find the system utility `ld`; please make sure you have the
package 'binutils' installed. If you do have binutils installed,
then please check that `ld` is in your PATH.

And here my questions...

What are binutils?
What to do now, for getting my driver and the binutils installed?

Waiting for help,

siggns

See if you have /usr/bin/ld. If not, try something like "apt-get install binutils"
