I'm also trying to update the drivers for my nvidia card. I'm using a Dell XPS M1210, the gen right before the M13xx series. The card I have is a GeForce 7400 Go. I can download a .exe from Dell, but of course, it being a windows executable, I can't use it. I can download a driver from Nvidia, but I'm not sure how to go about installing it, or even if I should, as it's not tailored for the 7400 Go.

Re: Question #2!
Alright! I've got Envy going...Now I just need to figure out where to get the right driver. The 7400 Go listed on Dell's site is a .exe, so I can't use that. Is there a way to find a version that will work with Linux? The driver isn't listed on Nvidia's site.

BTW, you will end up with the 169.09 driver -- it runs everything after the GeForce 5200.
