The installation failed with Error (245): Nvidia driver failed to install Error: 1. So I tried again, failed, reinstalled antix (twice) and then tried to install the drivers manually.
What I've learnt: the smxi script times out downloading the drivers from Nvidia and tacks forever. A manual wget or browse to downloads.nvidia.com delivers the drivers in a couple of seconds...I popped the manually downloaded 319.23 drivers in the /usr/src/sgfxi-downloads folder (removing the half downloaded driver in there) and ran the script again...so I don't think the issue is the script...so it could be the driver, antiX or more likely me...
