To install the nVidia driver:
- make sure installed kernel headers (linux-headers) match kernel (linux-image), otherwise DKMS won't build.
- install nvidia-driver (note: this will build a kernel module, so requires a working compiler)
- run
nvidia-xconfig --query-gpu-infoby hand and make note of PCI BusID - run
nvidia-xconfig --busid=PCI:x:x:xto generate xorg.conf
