[Net Llama!]

The latest NVIDIA driver is always listed here:

There's alsxo currently a beta (1.0-9625) driver available here, which 
includes some nice new features/functionality:

If anyone is experiencing problems with 1.0-8774, please test 1.0-9625, 
and provide fedback on nvnews (including an nvidia-bug-report.log):
