Driver downloads via Websites (Circumventing the Package Managers)
Hey guys, my first question:
The only reason I'm currently using Windows is my graphics card.
I'm running Jaunty Jackalope on an HP Pavillion dv6700
My Ethernet port doesn't work, and since I already have an ISP for my desktop, I don't want to fork out especially for a Wireless plan, in order to download graphics drivers.
Is it at all possible for me to download nVidia graphics drives directly from a website, instead of through the package-managing software on Jaunty?
Thanks in advance,
-AJ

It is very possible, but not suggested.
I would suggest downloading the correct .deb from http://
