I have debian Sarge:
- Build Nvidia Drivers:
http://packages.qa.debian.org/n/nvidia-graphics-drivers.html
-> Download three source files and put them in /usr/src
-> dpkg-source -x nvidia-graphics-drivers_....dsc
-> cd nvidia-graphics-drivers-...
-> ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-6629-pkg0.run -x
-> debian/rules binary
-> cd ..
-> dpkg -i nvidia-kernel-source_....deb
-> tar xfz /usr/src/nvidia-kernel-source.tar.gz
-> cd modules/nvidia-kernel/
-> KSRC=/path/to/kernel/sourcedir ./debian/rules binary_modules
-> cd ../..
-> dpkg -i debs
-> See that the module nvidia get loaded.
- Build X.org:
http://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/x11/x.org/pub/X11R6.8.2/src-single/X11R6.8.2-src.tar.gz
-> tar xfz X11R6.8.2-src.tar.gz
-> cd xc
-> cp config/cf/xorgsite.def config/cf/host.def
-> vim config/cf/host.def ADD the following lines to the end:
#define ProjectRoot /usr/local/X11R6.8
#define NothingOutsideProjectRoot YES
#define HasFreetype2 YES
#define HasFontconfig YES
-> make World
-> Trink a coffee or two
-> make install
-> vim /etc/ld.so.conf and ADD /usr/local/X11R6.8/lib to the end.
-> ldconfig
-> Symlink /usr/X11R6/bin/X to /usr/local/X11R6.8/bin/X
-> cp /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 /etc/X11/xorg.conf
-> EDIT /etc/X11/xorg.conf to include:
- The right module path and the additional option
