Not recommend, extremely unsafe and causing system malfunction! Too bad, I do not recommend! I'm using Linux Mint 16, I was forced to reinstall the whole system and programs again!
Made my day! Tried for hours to have suspend/resume work with nouveau, but no succes. After installing nvidia, running nvidia-xconfig and restarting it works perfectly. Dual monitor setup and GeForce 7300 GT
This driver has worked fine for me so far without crashes, artifacts, etc. I recommend installing from your system menu or update tool since that's all streamlined. I installed the Nvidia driver on Arch from command line once and had to do a little bit more manual work to install it. I guess you could do that on any Linux distro, but I'm always afraid of creating some conflict within the package manger's state for Ubuntu, Mint, etc. Basically, if you want to run 3D games on a newer Nvidia card with the least amount of frustration, go to your system menu, find Additional Drivers, and install!
If it works at all, it's a good driver, but often it fails to run. And setting up 2nd screen is much easier when using the experimental driver. If you don't need to run the most powerful games and your card is not a GeForce GT/GTS/GTX 4xx/5xx, the experimental driver (libgl1-mesa-dri-experimental) is much better.
