Are there any differences between nvidia-graphics-drivers 304.43 from x-swap PPA and x-edgers PPA, or is it the same package?

  • If the version numbers for graphics driver packages are the same, there is no difference between the X-Swat (X-Updates) PPA and the xorg-edgers PPA (because they come from the same source)


  • But, note that the X-Swat PPA contains only graphics driver packages, while the xorg-edgers PPA also contains many other "bleeding-edge" graphics/system packages which may be unstable; if you choose the xorg-edgers PPA, regular updates will install these other packages too.


  • So, if you want to update only your graphics drivers, the X-Swat (X-Updates) PPA is recommended.
