nvidia-installer was inspired by the loki_update tool: http://www.lokigames.com/development/loki_update.php3/

The FTP and HTTP support in nvidia-installer is based upon snarf 7.0: http://www.xach.com/snarf/

The self-extracting archive (aka .run file) is generated using makeself.sh: http://www.megastep.org/makeself/

The driver splash screen is decoded using libpng: http://libpng.org/pub/png/libpng.html

This NVIDIA Linux driver contains code from the int10 module of the X.Org project.

The BSD implementations of the following compiler intrinsics are used for better portability: __udivdi3, __umoddi3, __divdi3, __moddi3, __ucmpdi2, __cmpdi2, __fixunssfdi, __fixunsdfdi, __ashldi3 and __lshrdi3.
