Not true at all. All I use are the installers from nvidia.com. The installer
will install the 64bit driver and libs and the 32bit libs. All you have to do
is make sure the symlinks are ok in /usr/lib/ and make sure the libglx.so
extension is the one from the installer. It really isn't that hard to do. If
you have a basic knowledge of ln and know how the libs should be setup it only
takes 2 or 3 minutes to use the installer and have a perfectly working system.
Quake 4 works fine on my amd64 box.
So all you need is a working knowledge of where things should be, how
they should be, and why they should be, because nvidia's installer is
too stupid to get it right.
Handy.
Why exactly aren't you just using packages, rather than having some
random script overwrite bits of /usr for kicks?
