-First a note from the README file
-
-Q: Why does NVIDIA not provide rpms anymore?
-
-A: Not every Linux distribution uses rpm, and NVIDIA wanted a single
- solution that would work across all Linux distributions. As indicated
- in the NVIDIA Software License, Linux distributions are welcome to
- repackage and redistribute the NVIDIA Linux driver in whatever package
- format they wish.
-
-Furthermore, an email from NVIDIA:

- License For Customer Use of NVIDIA Software
-
-
-IMPORTANT NOTICE -- READ CAREFULLY: This License For Customer Use of
-NVIDIA Software ("LICENSE") is the agreement which governs use of
-the software of NVIDIA Corporation and its subsidiaries ("NVIDIA")
-downloadable herefrom, including computer software and associated
-printed materials ("SOFTWARE"). By downloading, installing, copying,
-or otherwise using the SOFTWARE, you agree to be bound by the terms
-of this LICENSE. If you do not agree to the terms of this LICENSE,
-do not download the SOFTWARE.
-
-RECITALS
-
-Use of NVIDIA's products requires three elements: the SOFTWARE, the
-hardware on a graphics controller board, and a personal computer. The
-SOFTWARE is protected by copyright laws and international copyright
-treaties, as well as other intellectual property laws and treaties.
-The SOFTWARE is not sold, and instead is only licensed for use,
-strictly in accordance with this document. The hardware is protected
-by various patents, and is sold, but this agreement does not cover
-that sale, since it may not necessarily be sold as a package with
-the SOFTWARE. This agreement sets forth the terms and conditions
-of the SOFTWARE LICENSE only.
-
-1. DEFINITIONS
-
-1.1 Customer. Customer means the entity or individual that
-downloads the SOFTWARE.
-
-2. GRANT OF LICENSE
-
-2.1 Rights and Limitations of Grant. NVIDIA hereby grants Customer
-the following non-exclusive, non-transferable right to use the
-SOFTWARE, with the following limitations:
-
-2.1.1 Rights. Customer may install and use one copy of the SOFTWARE
-on a single computer, and except for making one back-up copy of
-the Software, may not otherwise copy the SOFTWARE. This LICENSE
-of SOFTWARE may not be shared or used concurrently on different
-computers.
-
-2.1.2 Linux/FreeBSD Exception. Notwithstanding the foregoing terms
-of Section 2.1.1, SOFTWARE designed exclusively for use on the Linux or
-FreeBSD operating systems, or other operating systems derived from the
-source code to these operating systems, may be copied and redistributed,
-provided that the binary files thereof are not modified in any way
-(except for unzipping of compressed files).
-
-2.1.3 Limitations.
-
-No Reverse Engineering. Customer may not reverse engineer,
-decompile, or disassemble the SOFTWARE, nor attempt in any other
-manner to obtain the source code.
-
-No Separation of Components. The SOFTWARE is licensed as a
-single product. Its component parts may not be separated for use
-on more than one computer, nor otherwise used separately from the
-other parts.
-
-No Rental. Customer may not rent or lease the SOFTWARE to someone
-else.
-
-3. TERMINATION
-
-This LICENSE will automatically terminate if Customer fails to
-comply with any of the terms and conditions hereof. In such event,
-Customer must destroy all copies of the SOFTWARE and all of its
-component parts.
-
-Defensive Suspension. If Customer commences or participates in any legal
-proceeding against NVIDIA, then NVIDIA may, in its sole discretion,
-suspend or terminate all license grants and any other rights provided
-under this LICENSE during the pendency of such legal proceedings.
-
-4. COPYRIGHT
-
-All title and copyrights in and to the SOFTWARE (including but
-not limited to all images, photographs, animations, video, audio,
-music, text, and other information incorporated into the SOFTWARE),
-the accompanying printed materials, and any copies of the SOFTWARE,
-are owned by NVIDIA, or its suppliers. The SOFTWARE is protected
-by copyright laws and international treaty provisions. Accordingly,
-Customer is required to treat the SOFTWARE like any other copyrighted
-material, except as otherwise allowed pursuant to this LICENSE
-and that it may make one copy of the SOFTWARE solely for backup or
-archive purposes.
-
-5. APPLICABLE LAW
-
-This agreement shall be deemed to have been made in, and shall be
-construed pursuant to, the laws of the State of California.
-
-6. DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES AND LIMITATION ON LIABILITY
-
-6.1 No Warranties. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE
-LAW, THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND NVIDIA AND ITS SUPPLIERS
-DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT
-NOT LIMITED TO, IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS
-FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
-
-6.2 No Liability for Consequential Damages. TO THE MAXIMUM
-EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL NVIDIA OR
-ITS SUPPLIERS BE LIABLE FOR ANY SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, OR
-CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES WHATSOEVER (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION,
-DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF BUSINESS PROFITS, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, LOSS
-OF BUSINESS INFORMATION, OR ANY OTHER PECUNIARY LOSS) ARISING OUT
-OF THE USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE SOFTWARE, EVEN IF NVIDIA HAS
-BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
-
-7. MISCELLANEOUS
-
-The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International
-Sale of Goods is specifically disclaimed. If any provision of this
-LICENSE is inconsistent with, or cannot be fully enforced under,
-the law, such provision will be construed as limited to the extent
-necessary to be consistent with and fully enforceable under the law.
-This agreement is the final, complete and exclusive agreement between
-the parties relating to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes
-all prior or contemporaneous understandings and agreements relating
-to such subject matter, whether oral or written. Customer agrees
-that it will not ship, transfer or export the SOFTWARE into any
-country, or use the SOFTWARE in any manner, prohibited by the
