- FIRST, DOWNLOAD the latest nvidia driver from http://www.nvidia.com/object/unix.html (if you have a "normal" computer, you need the first driver in the list (Linux IA32)).

- aptitude install -R build-essential; f=/etc/init.d/rc.local; r="rmmod nvidia; modprobe nvidia"; [ a"$(cat "$f" |grep -c "$r")" == a0 ] && sudo bash -c "(echo "$r" >> "$f")"; f="$(find "$HOME" 2>&1 |egrep "NVIDIA-Linux-x86.*run$" |sort |tail -1)"; echo -en "\nPress ENTER to kill this KDE session and install NVIDIA.\nPress CTRL+C to cancel this command.\n\n"; read; screen sudo bash -c "(g=/usr/bin/gdm; mv -f $g $g.b; killall -9 gdm kdm Xorg; bash "$f" -ns; mv -f $g.b $g; kdm || gdm)"
