What is Envy?:

"Envy" is an application
for Ubuntu Linux and Debian
written in Python and PyGTK
which will:

1) detect the model of your graphic card (only ATI and Nvidia cards are supported) and install the appropriate driver. However automatic detection can be overridden with the "Manual installation"

2) package the driver that comes with ATI or Nvidia's installer (from their respective websites)

3) install all you need to package and install the driver

4) configure the Xserver for you

Envy features both a
GUI
(which you can launch only inside a Desktop Environment) and a textual interface
which you can use if, for example, you cannot start the Xserver.
