Perhaps this should be split into two different pages, one for amd, one for nvidia. The current structure is too book-like. - — Tony Senerchia 2012/08/22 08:52
I've added another way to shut down X. — Brian Lawrence 2012/08/22 11:57
Brian, I originally had included that (telinit 3) in the description of ways to shut down X (along with init 3, which I seem to remember working on some distro at some point), but removed it after issuing the command on my system and seeing no results. I do already have the nvidia driver installed, but I don't know why that would make a big difference. So I removed those commands. Can anyone confirm either way? Thanks! — Tony Senerchia 2012/09/02 11:58
It's always worked for me, including updating already installed drivers. — Brian Lawrence 2012/09/03 06:18
The use of NVIDIA-Linux-x86specificrevision.run may not be clear for unexperienced users. Is there a more elegant way of writing this, or should an example be given? — Tony Senerchia 2012/09/02 13:34
Maybe “version-number”? — Brian Lawrence 2012/09/03 06:18
Ooops! Changes for the better already made by alienbob. — Brian Lawrence 2012/09/03 06:28
