INSTALL NVIDIA
CHECK KERNEL
uname -r
STEP 1. Install the kernel module
Use module-assistant
> apt-get install module-assistant gcc nvidia-kernel-common
> m-a update
> m-a prepare
> m-a auto-install nvidia
OR
m-a auto-install nvidia-kernel-legacy-source
STEP 2. Install the user-space libraries
> apt-get install nvidia-glx
STEP 3. Configure X to use the nvidia driver
check to see if values are the same
> md5sum /etc/X11/xorg.conf|diff -sq /var/lib/x11/xorg.conf.md5sum -
> dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
When asked to choose an X server driver, choose nvidia. Then, when asked to select X server modules, deselect (uncheck) GLCore (if present) and dri, and select (check) glx.
STEP 4. Force the kernel module to load at boot
> grep -q ^nvidia /etc/modules || echo nvidia >> /etc/modules
REBOOT
> apt-get install nvidia-settings ---> it will be in /usr/bin/nvidia-settings if it don't show up on the menu right away
DISCLAIMER:
I'm not any sort of Debian expert, this is just what works for me and there "may" or "probable is" better ways of doing it.
