How to install a NVIDIA Geforce 9500GT?
 
hy all,

it's to many times I'm trying all the way to setup my new GPU by NVIDIA, a Geforce 9500 GT but with no success, so I decided to ask for your help

is there anyone able to tell me how to do in my case? (which is the right driver and how to install it)
now I've installed:

Kernel - "Non-free Linux 2.6.24 modules on x86/x86_64"
binary drivers: "nvidia-glx-new"

but if I check the "restricted driver manager" it's empy, while with my old configuration, with a old nvidia geforce 4, there was a "nvidia" driver set as "in use".

if it could be usefull, I paste my" xorg.conf":
