Another question: NVIDIA seems to be offering binary modules for my card 
('NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-340.106'). Does this have any advantages over 'nouveau'? 
(On Arch Linux, I've found that the external VGA port works nicely for a dual 
monitor configuration with the NVIDIA drivers, whereas I couldn't get it to 
work with 'nouveau'.) Has anyone successfully installed the proprietary NVIDIA 
modules on a BLFS system?
Thanks a lot,
Build the driver each kernel upgrade relese. You don't have to use binaries 
that NVIDIA provides. They have a driver you can build.

Thanks a lot for this information. I'm not quite sure which driver you're 
referring to. The only thing that I found isĀ 
http://www.nvidia.com/Download/driverResults.aspx/130042/en-us. Could you 
please clarify which driver you are recommending?
Thanks a lot,

Hans
