thank you for reply rind<br />
indeed the Nouveau driver is included and actually during the process of installing the NVIDIA driver (on a machine that has gcc) it has to be disabled<br />
<br />
my current issue is that I need to use the NVIDIA driver and therefore I am trying to find a way to make it work on a machine that does not have a complier<br />

I tried the hard way of installing the NVIDIA driver on a machine with gcc and then copying the various installed files to a machine (same type) that did not have gcc and so far it seems to work. after trying to use Nouveau it seems that it is sufficient and there is no need (at least so far for me from what I have seen) to go for all the trouble as I did.<br />

operating system is Oracle linux 6.1 Desktop, that has no gcc installed<br />
NVIDIA card is GetForce210<br />
<br />
running the NVIDIA installer gives an error complaining that no compiler (gcc) was found<br />

is it possible to install the driver without compiling ?<br />
I know I can install gcc and let the installer compile but I am looking for a solution that will not involve installing a complier (gcc) <br />

install NVIDIA linux driver without compiling

Components are those devices that are internal to a computer -- the PC boards, the central processor (CPU), the memory (RAM), disk and video controllers and so on.

A Linux distribution is an operating system made as a software collection based on the Linux kernel and, often, on a package management system and are available for a variety of systems. A typical Linux distribution comprises a Linux kernel, GNU tools and libraries, additional software, documentation, a window system (the most common being the X Window System), a window manager, and a desktop environment. Most Linux systems are open-source software made available both as compiled binaries and in source code form, allowing modifications to the original software. Over three hundred distributions are in active development, including commercially backed distributions (such as Fedora, openSUSE and Ubuntu) and community-driven distributions (such as Debian, Slackware, Gentoo and Arch Linux).
