nvidia-driver (340.96-3) [non-free]
Source: nvidia-graphics-drivers
This metapackage depends on the NVIDIA binary driver and libraries
that provide optimized hardware acceleration of
OpenGL applications via a direct-rendering X Server.
AGP, PCIe, SLI, TV-out and flat panel displays are also supported.
Please see the nvidia-kernel-dkms or
for building the kernel module required by this package.
This will provide nvidia-kernel-340.96.
This version only supports GeForce 8xxx and higher of the Geforce GPUs
plus corresponding Quadros and nforce. Look at the legacy packages
See /usr/share/doc/nvidia-driver/README.txt.gz
for a complete list of supported GPUs and PCI IDs.
Building the kernel module has been tested up to Linux 4.3.

Here I want to show you how to activate non-free repo and then install the NVIDIA graphics driver in Debian. Activate the Non-Free Repository. Via Software Sources.
The easiest way to install NVIDIA GeForce Driver on Debian Linux 8 Jessie is to use official contrib and non-free debian repository. First add the following non-free and contrib repositories to your /etc/apt/sources.list. Therefore, first change the content of your /etc/apt/sources.list file to include contrib and non-free packages eg.:
deb jessie main contrib non-free
deb-src jessie main contrib non-free
Next, update your repositories:
At this point the nvidia-driver package becomes available for the installation:
Running module version sanity check.
- No original module exists within this kernel
- Installing to /lib/modules/3.16.0-4-amd64/updates/dkms/
Setting up nvidia-settings 340.46-2
Setting up libegl1-nvidia:amd64 340.65-2
Setting up xserver-xorg-video-nvidia 340.65-2
Setting up nvidia-driver 340.65-2
Processing triggers for libc-bin 2.19-13
Processing triggers for initramfs-tools 0.116
During the installation you will see a notification about conflicting version of the free software nouveau nvidia driver with your currently being installed non-free nvidia kernel module which you can simply ignore.
Conflicting nouveau kernel module loaded
The free nouveau kernel module is currently loaded and conflicts with the non-free nvidia kernel module.
The easiest way to fix this is to reboot the machine once the installation has finished.
Wait for the installation to finish and once done generate a new /etc/X11/xorg.conf xorg configuration file with nvidia-xconfig command. First, install nvidia-xconfig package:
apt-get install nvidia-xconfig
After the installation is finished execute nvidia-xconfig command to generate new /etc/X11/xorg.conf config file:
New X configuration file written to /etc/X11/xorg.conf
If the above command shows message about the lack of a previous /etc/X11/xorg.conf config file simply disregard it and reboot your system to load a newly installed nvidia driver. After the reboot, login to your desktop and start the official nvidia-settings configuration tool either from command line:
or by starting it using a relevant menu under the start button to access more nvidia graphic card configuration settings.
