New(ish) Nvidia drivers on Old Kernel
by TheJooomes from LinuxQuestions.org on (#59AF8)
So I impulse purchased an Ubuntu Lucid book with included install disk today. I'm thinking I wanna install it on this old Dell D620 with an Nvidia NVS 110m, but I need help picking which driver I should use before the ubuntu stuff gets here. As you can see here, there are lots of choices, from 2013 to 2017. Idk which would be the best option for kernel 2.6 for lucid. Maybe 2013 because it's closest to the release of 2.6? Or maybe the latest one would work? Possibly one in between? I'm aiming for best compatibility with early 2010's stuff.
