ASUS/NVidia Drivers, Debian

[KingKull2112]

Alright, so these are my specs:
ASUS M4N68T-M V2 Motherboard, which has built in NVidia drivers. Not sure which ones.
Running the KDE desktop on Debian (no idea the version numbers, all i know is its Squeeze)
Synaptic is installed

My dilemma is I don't know what drivers I should be installing and where to get them. I looked on synaptic and all I saw were programs to over clock my system (which is part of this motherboard)

Any info would be greatly appreciated.

A quick duckduckgo/google/bing/yahoo easily revealed what video chipset that board has.... but to be certain it's best to check

Post output:

lspci | grep -i vga

Then consider - why do you want to install a driver? Is the system working, is display functioning as expected, etc? What symptoms are you seeing which makes you consider that installation of another driver is necessary?

00:0d.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation C61 [GeForce 7025 / nForce 630a] (rev a2)

The reason I want to install the drivers is so I can use them to run WINE.

This wiki page will guide you through installing the proprietary drivers. Read it carefully and you will get it done - but skim through it and try all of the different methods at once: and you'll quickly have a mess on your hands...

NvidiaGraphicsDrivers - Debian Wiki

Do not download anything from nvidia at this stage. Follow the instructions and "do it the debian way". If you read it, you will see that there are actually only a few commands you need to run to get it up and running.
