instructions

well the above is a link to a different thread that has the complete instructions on installing the nvidia drivers ...
as of switching to root you type :
su -
and then type the root password after that as it will prompt you for it ....

exit the x-windows,and use the command su to change your id to root,then launch the .run file.
