+This is the kernel-module needed by the proprietary binary nvidia driver.
+You also need the nvidia-legacy390-driver package from SlackBuilds.org.
+
+To build the package for a kernel different from the running one,
+start the script setting the KERNEL variable as in
+ KERNEL=4.6.3 ./nvidia-legacy390-kernel.SlackBuild
+
+A default config file is placed at /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-nvidia.conf
+to make sure that X loads the nvidia module. If you need to make changes,
+move that file to /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/ and edit the copy. You do not need
+this file at all if you have a proper and complete xorg.conf.
+
+The xf86-video-nouveau-blacklist package from /extra is required.
