    I just downloaded a Sabayon 8 ISO x64 and wanted to get the proper nvidia card driver in order since that's always the thing that bugs me outta' the gate.

    I'm running a single 280m GTX right now, and wanted to try to keep HDMI compatibility running and sound through HDMI going.

    I'm looking at this page: NVIDIA Driver Downloads - Advanced Search

    Just curious if anyone here is running a 260m/280m and knows what driver runs best on Linux for gaming.
