Hi guys

Can somebody please tell me where i can find the latest drivers for my Nvidia Geforce 8500GT graphic card. I tried the nvidia-new-glx but it gave an error saying it is not valid. I want to apply Extra Visual Effects. Please help

*www.nvidia.com/object/unix.html

Or better yet, try selecting your driver version from here:
*www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx?lang=en-us

(if Dark Star's linked page seems confusing)

and I've heard they have updated the drivers for Linux.

But it is not added in Ubuntu's repositories yet. I think they will add new driver into next version of Ubuntu 9.04.

Yes, its in Jaunty Jacalope or in nvidia's site.
