If it is not in your path you can add it with: PATH = $PATH:/usr/bin export PATH This should be part of your default environment for both normal users and root. Also, you should be installing the nvidia package as root which should by default have /usr/bin in its path. When you use su to change to root make sure to include the - ( su - ) so that roots environment is used. Otherwise su by itself changes you to root permissions but keeps your environment variables. -- Scot L.
