How to install nvidia-legacy-340xx-driver on Debian 12 Bookworm

OUTDATED

Although this guide still works and even works on Debian 13 it's deprecated.

It's replaced by this new guide which supports both 64-bit and 32-bit libraries.

I will keep it because the information here is useful.

How to install nvidia-legacy-340xx-driver on Debian 12 Bookworm

This guide will show you how to download, compile and install the nvidia-legacy-340xx-driver on Debian 12. Some people install the driver directly from sid but this will mix packages from both stable and unstable which may create issues. It's recommended to update and upgrade your system before you start.
