Nvidia Linux Display Driver is a proprietary OpenGL video driver that tries to bring support for the graphics cards produced by Nvidia on Linux-based operating systems. This version supports only the 32-bit architecture. For 64-bit support, see this link. Even if it provides a settings panel, the Nvidia Linux Display Driver is not an application. It is a hardware driver, which provides some instructions that tell an operating system how to use a piece of hardware

Release highlights since 352.09:

• Added support for the following GPUs:
  
  • Tesla K40t
    
  • GeForce 720A
    
  • GeForce 920A
    
  • GeForce 930A
    
  • GeForce 940A
    
  • GeForce GTX 950A
    
  • GeForce GTX 980 Ti
    
  
  
• Added GLX Protocol support for the following OpenGL extensions:
  
  • GL_ARB_copy_buffer
    
  • GL_ARB_texture_buffer_object
    
  
  
• Fixed a bug that caused the Display Configuration page of the nvidia-settings control panel to automatically generate layouts with multiple displays occupying the same position when enabling or disabling Base Mosaic.
  
• Updated nvidia-settings to allow the use of the standard Display Configuration page when SLI Mosaic is enabled.
  
• Fixed a bug that caused the kernel to report errors when unmapping DMA allocations on kernels with CONFIG_DEBUG_DMA_API enabled.
  
• Fixed a bug that caused a kernel crash if SLI Mosaic and G-SYNC were used at the same time on a configuration with more display devices connected to one GPU than another.
  
• Fixed a bug in nvidia-settings that caused the application to crash when saving the EDID to a file.
  
• Fixed a bug that prevented the "mkprecompiled" utility included in the driver package from reading files correctly.
  
• Fixed a bug that could cause an Xid error when terminating a video playback application using the overlay presentation queue in VDPAU.
  
• Updated nvidia-installer to avoid recursing too deeply into kernel source trees under /usr/lib/modules, mirroring an existing restriction on recursion under /lib/modules.

Supports a wide range of Nvidia GPUs

In our tests, we’ve discovered that the Nvidia Linux Display Driver supports much more Nvidia graphics cards than the open source Nouveau driver. It plays well with most of the ION, ION LE, Quadro Plex, Quadro Sync, GRID, NVS, nForce Professional 3000, Quadro FX, Quadro Blade, as well as all the GeForce series.

All in all, if you have a PC or laptop equipped with an Nvidia GPU, and you have issues with the default Nouveau open source driver, you may want to install the Nvidia Linux Display Driver. It’s also the number one choice for gaming users.
