Installing Graphic drivers for GeForce 8500 GT
Using the latest ubuntu 13.10 and trying to get the propriatory (spelling) drivers for my GeForce 8500 GT. But it doesnt show in the "additional settings". Its blank. Am I doing something wrong or should I download it from the Nvidia homepage? How do I install it? Step by step would be awsome for me as a non-geek
