When I try to install the nvidia driver for my video card, I receive an error message.
ERROR: You appear to be running an X server; please exit X before
installing. For further details, please see the section INSTALLING
THE NVIDIA DRIVER in the README available on the Linux driver
download page at www.nvidia.com.
I wasn't able to find the README on the website but how do I create a terminal that is non-X? I am on 12.04.
