Hello:

I am a big fan of KDE so i built my own custom image with a couple tweaks and it worked perfectly. I also have a Nvidia graphics card and was able to install the driver after the initial OS install.

However during the install I ran into some problems with the Nouveau driver and the X server. The display was all chopped up and I had trouble loading items because of it. I was able to fix the issues but it did take a while.

That got me thinking, is there any way to build my custom Nvidia driver into my custom KDE build so that it preloads on start up? I have already downloaded the Nvidia .run file, is there a way I can preload this into the build?

any help would be appreciated,

Jones

That would be really nice, especially if it worked for optimus nvidia graphics cards as well :)
