Ayway i also tried the new driver and runs very fine. I suggest using the the nvidia driver team ppa. This way you will have auto update for the drivers and you don't have to recompile the driver when you have a kernel update. I did it this way:
Code:sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list #copy-paste the following to the end of the list
------------------------
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/nvidia-vdpau/ppa/ubuntu jaunty main
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/nvidia-vdpau/ppa/ubuntu jaunty main
------------------------
sudo apt-key adv --recv-keys --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com 71609D4D2F1518FA9C5DC0FB1DABDBB4CEC06767
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install linux-headers-generic nvidia-glx-185
sudo reboot
After this you can update the driver and kernel any time (if available) with
Code:sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo reboot
Cheers
i dont know squat about linux, so let me ask you a dumb question. I can run this on the xbmc live install, and it will update the graphics drivers on my zotac ion system? I had used an older version of the restricted drivers integrated into my iso, but are you telling me if i do the above, that i'll be able to update from within my system?
