result =

os = open source driver
vendor = proprietary driver
generic = safe driver with limited features

3. Current used driver: sudo /usr/libexec/panda-helper cur

example:

$ /usr/libexec/panda-helper cur
vendor

4. Show the required packages for the proprietary driver when it isn't already installed: /usr/libexec/panda-helper check

example:

$ /usr/libexec/panda-helper check
module-nvidia-current-userspace,nvidia-settings,module-nvidia-current,nvidia-xconfig,xorg-video-nvidia-current

and no output when the required packages for the proprietary driver are already installed.

5. Command to change driver: sudo /usr/libexec/panda-helper up <name>

5a. for open source driver: sudo /usr/libexec/panda-helper up os

5b. for vendor: sudo /usr/libexec/panda-helper up vendor

5c. for generic: /usr/libexec/panda-helper up generic
