Nvidia Binary Driver
I don't see any lock symbols so I'm really stumped on why the channels will not change. Programming is not that difficult, you just download the programming software, connect the radio to the computer, run program, turn on radio, click the 'radio' menu and select 'download'. This will display whats programmed into the radio (in your case nothing) then you start adding the freq's and channel names you want and then upload to the radio. Vertex vx 261 programming software. I have attached a picture of the screen I see.
NVIDIA nForce Drivers Open source drivers for NVIDIA nForce hardware are included in the standard Linux kernel and leading Linux distributions. This page includes information on open source drivers, and driver disks for older Linux distributions including 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Linux.
Linux users have long had a love-hate relationship with Nvidia. On the one hand, Nvidia’s proprietary graphics drivers have always been the best-performing ones for. On the other hand, Nvidia has been so hostile to the open-source community that a few years ago. Torvalds also called them “the single worst company” the Linux developer community has ever had to deal with. Nvidia seemed to be improving after Valve announced its. But the latest Nvidia graphics hardware, the GeForce GTX 900 series, “is VERY open-source unfriendly,” according to a Nouveau developer.

NVIDIA’s contributions are far behind Intel and AMD Nvidia still offers the worst open-source support, compared to Intel and AMD. Intel’s Linux graphics drivers are completely open-source, which is great—but Intel’s integrated graphics still can’t compete with dedicated Nvidia or AMD hardware for serious gaming performance. Intel employs people just to work on their open-source graphics drivers.
AMD’s Catalyst driver for Linux is also closed-source, and is necessary to get the best 3D gaming performance out of AMD graphics hardware on Linux. But there’s also an open-source graphics driver named “Radeon,” and it’s been developed based on hardware specifications released by AMD. AMD may not be as good as Intel here, but it’s actively helping the open-source community.
Like Intel, AMD also employs people to work on and contribute to these open-source drivers. Brad Chacos Nvidia is different. Nvidia offers their own proprietary GeForce drivers for Linux. There’s also the open-source Nouveau driver. Unlike the AMD driver, which was helped along by AMD’s release of specifications, the Nouveau driver has been built almost entirely through reverse-engineering. Nvidia has recently helped a bit on the Nouveau driver, contributing graphics support for their Tegra hardware, bits of documentation, and some advice.
But even those contributions were unexpected. Now, “security features” in the latest Nvidia graphics cards are making this reverse-engineering more difficult, in spite of Nvidia saying they’d help the Nouveau developers.
Where are the signed firmware images? Both AMD and Nvidia graphics hardware rely on —closed-source binary blobs that make the hardware work. AMD releases these binary-only firmware images so the open-source Radeon driver can make use of them, although they still aren’t open-source. In the past, the Nouveau developers have had to come up with a way to extract the binary firmware images from the closed-source driver. The Nouveau driver could then generate firmware images and provide them to the Nvidia graphics card when initializing it.
