To enable Nvidia 3D acceleration in infinityOS, first update your package list by entering the following into the terminal:
------------
sudo aptitude update
------------
Then, install the drivers by typing in the following command in the terminal:
--------------
sudo jockey-gtk
--------------
After you've restarted, type the following into the terminal:
--------------
sudo nvidia-settings
--------------
Enable every option refering to V-Blank or V-Sync. I also recommend
overriding the default antialiasing to 4x. This applies to both kinds
of antialiasing.
Close the Nvidia settings.
Type the following into the terminal to commit your settings into the
xorg.conf file:
-------------
sudo nvidia-xconfig
-------------
Restart your computer. Your graphics card is now set up to be pretty :p.
Note: For technical reasons, the Nvidia drivers are not supported on the Live CD/DVD, unless you make a persistent Live USB key.
