This mini-HOWTO is about how to install the
OpenGL
drivers for
Nvidia graphics cards on
Linux.
In addition to just installing the Nvidia drivers, this mini-HOWTO
also explains how to install
XFree86, the
OpenGL Utility library
(part of Mesa),
the OpenGL Utility Toolkit
(glut),
the full set of OpenGL manpages,
Qt and its OpenGL extension,
and Java and
its Java 3D extension so that a user can have a complete runtime and
development environment for OpenGL applications on Linux.
Note that some of this material may be out of date. The author
has attempted to update this material but has not had time to
test all the procedures. Nevertheless, this document should
still provide a decent overview of what is involved.
