To install the NVIDIA driver contained within the .run file without using nvidia-installer, you can use the included Makefile: sh ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-6629-pkg1.run –extract-only cd NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-6629-pkg1 make install This method of installation is not recommended, and is only provided as a last resort, should nvidia-installer not work correctly on your system.
