Quote:
NVIDIA has a unified driver architecture model; this means that one driver
set can be used with all supported NVIDIA graphics chips. Please see
Appendix A for a list of the NVIDIA graphics chips supported by the
current drivers.
Driver release 1.0-4349 introduced a new packaging
and installation mechanism, which greatly simplifies the
installation process. There is only a single file to download:
NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-1.0-4496-pkg1.run. This contains
everything previously contained by the old NVIDIA_kernel and NVIDIA_GLX
packages.
Driver release 1.0-4496 introduces a package suffix ("-pkg#") to
the .run file. This is used to distinguish between packages containing
the same driver, but with different precompiled kernel interfaces.
If there is any confusion, just download the .run file with the largest
pkg number.
