Upgrading Device Drivers

If you must upgrade a Linux device driver, visit the HP Workstation support Web site at
http://www.hp.com/go/workstationsupport.
To install hardware devices, such as a printer, a display adapter, or a network adapter after the operating
system is installed, the operating system needs access to the appropriate software drivers for the devices.
Device drivers are usually provided on a CD supplied with the peripheral device.
Some existing peripheral devices might not have been shipped with drivers developed for Linux. To locate
the most current device drivers:
1. Go to http://www.hp.com/go/workstationsupport.
2. Select your HP Workstation from the list.
Click download drivers and software.
3.
4. Select your Linux OS version.
5. Scroll down and download the desired driver.
If no driver is found, visit the Web site of the manufacturer of the peripheral device.
