At the moment I'm using the free nv drivers, since the nvidia drivers broke upon upgrade. I'd like to get my 3d back so I can play my games.
My primary graphics card is a GeForce 6200. EDIT: It says 6800 in my sig, 6200 is from lspci, I'm not sure which is correct...
Jockey gives me the option of version 96, 173, or 177. Which should I use? I tried on already and it didn't work, but I forgot which sorry.
And/or, how should I install them. (As in, use jockey, or envyNG, or nvidia's own stuff, or what?)
I also have two kernels - a 2.6.24 and a 2.6.27
Am I likely to get different results regarding nvidia drivers with the two?
My Kubuntu was upgraded from Hardy btw.
EDIT: Also, I have another machine with an old GeForce 2. Am I to understand that 8.10 does not support nvidia drivers for that card, and that if I want hardware acceleration with it, I should stick with Hardy?
