+Since this nvidia-driver conflicts with some files of xorg, it's a bit
 complex to install/uninstall the driver.  However, installation of the
 nvidia-driver package itself backs up the conflicting files and puts the
 nvidia-specific files into place.
 
 Heinz Wiesinger, the author of the build script, has written a script called
 nvidia-switch, which can be used to switch between the stock xorg driver and

 that manually.  The nvidia-switch script is installed to /usr/sbin.
 
 Usage of nvidia-switch:
   nvidia-switch --xorg	 <-->  switch to the stock xorg files
   nvidia-switch --nvidia  <--> switch to the proprietary nvidia files
