running (init 3).

1. To check for existing NVIDIA packages, at the prompt type: 
'rpm -qa | grep nvidia'

2. Remove any previous NVIDIA package. For example, at the prompt type: 
'rpm -e nvidia-7174-1.3.x86_64.rpm'

3. To install the new package, at the prompt type:
'rpm -ivh nvidia-7667-1.1.x86_64.rpm'

NOTE: The previous steps install the package file on the workstation, but they 
do not configure the new driver. 

4. Configure the new package by executing the following script: 
'/opt/hp/graphics/nvidia/configure'

NOTE: Step 4 places/builds and configures the NVIDIA accelerated graphics 
module. It also moves any current XF86Config file aside and puts a standard 
NVIDIA file in place. 

Refer to the documentation provided in '/opt/hp/graphics/nvidia' for more 
information about this package, advanced installation options, and more sample 
XF86Configuration files and options.
