De drivers zijn beschikbaar voor Linux (32bit), Linux (AMD64/EM64T), Solaris (x64/x86), FreeBSD (x86) en FreeBSD (x64). Specifieke installatie-instructies kunnen op de afzonderlijke pagina's worden gevonden. Versie 295.20 voegt onder andere ondersteuning toe voor de Tesla X2090 en verhelpt verder diverse problemen. Het volledige changelog van deze release ziet er als volgt uit:
Changelog:
- Added support for the following GPU:
- Tesla X2090
- Fixed a bug that caused black areas to appear on the back faces of some models in Maya.
- Fixed a bug that resulted in the printing of spurious loader error messages.
- Fixed a bug that could cause X to crash after hotplugging displays.
- Fixed a bug which caused face selections to be misrendered in Maya when using the paint selection tool.
- Improved performance for interactive tools in Mudbox.
- Added a "--no-opengl-files" option to nvidia-installer to allow installation of the driver without OpenGL files that might conflict with already installed OpenGL implementations.
- Split the DFP configuration page in nvidia-settings into multiple tabs, allowing the controls to be displayed on smaller screens.

- Fixed a bug that prevented the internal panel from working on some laptops with GeForce 7 series GPUs.
- Fixed an OpenGL bug where using display lists on Fermi-based GPUs could result in missing rendering in some cases.
- Fixed an OpenGL bug that caused incorrect rendering when using framebuffer objects to render to 16-bit color textures with alpha.
- Fixed two bugs that caused sporadic application crashes in some multi-threaded OpenGL applications.
- Fixed a bug that caused creating OpenGL 4.2 contexts with glXCreateContextAttribsARB to fail.
- Fixed a bug that caused OpenGL to print
- Xlib: extension "NV-GLX" missing on display ":0". when used with a non-NVIDIA implementation of the GLX X extension.
- Implemented color depth 30 (10 bits per component) support for GeForce 8 series and higher GPUs.
- Implemented support for constraining cursors to the visible regions of connected displays; see the "ConstrainCursor" X Option in the README for details.
