=== Linux X.Org driver ===<br />
<br />
Default X.Org NVidia driver, called "nv" works.<br />
<br />
:''On an R61 running OpenSUSE 10.3, the nv driver locks up the machine hard.'' --[[User:Nettings|Nettings]] 14:39, 26 March 2008 (CET)<br />
<br />
=== NVIDIA proprietary driver ===<br />
<br />
Support for Quadro NVS 140M has been introduced in the NVIDIA Linux unified driver version 100.14.09 (released on 8 June 2007). For the latest drivers go to the [http://www.nvidia.com/object/unix.html NVIDIA Unix Drivers page]. Note that NVIDIA proprietary drivers do not work with a Xen virtualized kernel.<br />
<br />
==== CUDA ====<br />
<br />
Since it has a G86 core, [http://developer.nvidia.com/object/cuda.html NVidia CUDA] works on this video card, even though not being listed in the CUDA manuals. Running very large problems (like the SDK examples) however might fail by running out of the relatively small graphics memory.<br />
<br />
=== LCD Backlight Brightness Control on T61/R61 ===<br />
<br />
There has been an issue with Brightness Control on T61/R61s. This seems to be fixed with the 169.04 BETA drivers from Nvidia. You can find them i.e. here [http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_ia32_169.04.html 169.04 BETA Driver]. You might also need the latest BIOS ([[BIOS_Upgrade_Downloads]] 1.26) as well as the latest version of [[Ibm-acpi]] (thinkpad-acpi, V0.18).<br />
<br />
If the nvidia module is loaded with the argument NVreg_EnableBrightnessControl=1, one can switch to a virtual console, change the lcd brightness level there, and have that level preserved after switching back to the X session. On a {{T61}}, this was tested with the acpi video driver included in the vanilla Linux 2.6.21-6 kernel and on an {{R61}} with {{OpenSUSE}} 10.2.<br />
