Nvidia drivers

The only thing of gnome I even run is nautilus, which is better than the
other file managers I have tried, even if it is difficult to modify, or
discover how you can even modify (mostly due to older versions confusing
things).  For everything else I use OpenBox, with lxpanels or xfce-panel,
launched from a scripted, xsession.

Basically My biggest issue with gnome has been lack of detailed
documentation.  Plenty of simple 'help' but little to no actual REAL
documentation on various parts.
