Don't ask me what's new, I don't know.

Nvidia via Preview of TinyURL.com/2brrdmc
Or the direct link via TinyURL.com Nvidia
(I don't know how to make the link directly clickable with GPUGRID.net BBCode tags w/o it placing a http before ftp.)

When enabling BBCode on the server, there is a choice to include different codes such as [ftp], [/ftp], [sub] and [/sub].
Most sites, including this one, do not enable all possible BBCode, just the basics - it is usually enough.

I think it is sufficient for readers to tripple click and use copy and paste - so a text link is better on a seperate line.
Making ftp bold and/or adding some colour to highlight that it is a File Transfer Protocol URL helps,

ftp://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86_64/256.38.02/

It's not a good idea to use color=green for the whole line, and not everyone has colour vision.

I also add here a link to my BOInc 4 N00Bs site. I use this myself to save time so I can do most of the steps simply by copy & paste into terminal. There are steps to do all the things I usually need to do myself, when I upgrade, downgrade, or reinstall Linux. BTX, the steps are for Mint Linux 8 & should also work for Ubuntu 9.10 DON'T upgrade/downgrade drivers this way if you use Mint Linux 9 or Ubuntu 10.04
