I can't believe that you have to recompile the kernel to install a NVIDIA graphics card.
This is a 32 meg plus download just to get the headers!
Sheesh.
I'm out in the sticks with a horribly decrepit land line which is frequently dug up to provide copper wire tourist tat.
It's about a couple of hundred mile round trip to get to the internet cafe so that I can cut a CD, which, when I run apt-get on it, is invariably lacking some dependency or other.
Looks like a better solution is to ditch my NVIDIA 128meg card (which cost a fortune when I bought it) and get something with less power but more mainstream.
