This is the proprietary binary video driver from NVidia for the X.Org
X-server. This package does not include the kernel-module - it is a
part of the nvidia-kernel package at SlackBuilds.org.

NOTE: 64-bit x86_64 support ONLY for Slackware64. For x86 32-bit
support, use nvidia-legacy390-{driver,kernel}

The Wine libraries are now installed by default.  To disable, pass
  WINE="no" to the script.

Installing the 32-bit compatibility libraries is available:
if desired, do:

  COMPAT32="yes" ./nvidia-driver.SlackBuild

This script now gives the option of installing the nvidia-persistenced
daemon (recommended if you are using the open kernel module).
For details, see README.nvidia-persistenced.

BIG FAT NOTE: if nvidia-kernel was built with DRM=no, DO NOT build
nvidia-persistenced as it will not load.

Several useful utilities are included: nvidia-xsettings, nvidia-smi,
and nvidia-settings.  Please refer to the Nvidia documentation and
man pages for details and usage.

For CUDA/OpenCL to work after reboot, and for utilites such as
nvidia-smi, you might need to include the following line in your
/etc/rc.d/rc.local:
(This is REQUIRED if you plan on running nvidia-persistenced)

    # Create missing nvidia device nodes after reboot
    /usr/bin/nvidia-modprobe -c 0 -u

Note: You still need to blacklist the open source nouveau driver.
      This is easily done by installing xf86-video-nouveau-blacklist
      in extra/xf86-video-nouveau-blacklist on the distibution DVD.

EOL NOTE: The 580.xx series will be the last to support the Maxwell
and Pascal GPUs (GTX 745,750; GT(X) 8xx,9xx,10xx cards) as well as
Volta (Titan series).  When the next driver series is released, this
will become nvidia-legacy580.
