+ The NVIDIA Accelerated Linux Graphics Driver brings accelerated 2D + functionality and high-performance OpenGL support to Linux with the + use of NVIDIA graphics processing units. +
++ These drivers provide optimized hardware acceleration for OpenGL and X + applications and support nearly all recent NVIDIA GPU products. + The NVIDIA graphics driver uses a Unified Driver Architecture: the single + graphics driver supports all modern NVIDIA GPUs. +
++ The nvidia-settings utility is a tool for configuring the NVIDIA graphics + driver. It operates by communicating with the NVIDIA X driver, querying + and updating state as appropriate. This communication is done via the + NV-CONTROL, GLX, XVideo, and RandR X extensions. +
++ Values such as brightness and gamma, XVideo attributes, temperature, and + OpenGL settings can be queried and configured via nvidia-settings. +
++ You need the Nvidia proprietary driver. This is not a standalone application. +
