After a long period of development, many users know about the installation of the graphics card driver in linux. Here I will share my personal understanding and discuss it with you.
Install the video card driver in Linux:
Step 1: Download a graphics card driver for Linux, under my NVIDIA-Linux-x86-173.08-pkg1.run my kernel is 2.6.18-53. el5
Step 2: If you find that xen exists in your kernel, you are on the Virtual Machine Platform. I cannot install a video card driver on a virtual machine platform, nor do I mean I cannot. However, the video card driver does not support the virtual machine very well. To exit the Virtual Machine Platform, You have to restart the computer and choose a kernel version without xen to enter. If there is no xen, there is no way to go. You just need to Googel and choose not to select a virtual machine when I reinstall the system.
Step 3: Press Ctrl + Alt + BackSpace to enter the character interface and use root to log on to the system, enter the graphical interface and enter the init 3 command in shell to enter the character interface.
Step 4: Enter the video card driver directory on the Character interface and use it. /NVIDIA-Linux-x86-173.08-pkg1.run start installation pop-up the first screen Select Accept allow installation, then pop-up the second screen choose not through the network update to start the installation, and finally choose to enable the driver comes with the configuration software.
Step 5: Enter the command init 5 to enter the graphic interface. If the graphic interface reports an error, the rboot system will start.
Okay. So far, our video card driver has been installed. Do you find that the host runs much faster and looks comfortable.
