Greetings to all here..

I'm a complete Linux virgin, so apologies if anything I'm asking is blatantly obvious.. (I have done a brief search for the issues I'm having) Please go easy on the terminology.. I've years of Windows to cleanse myself of.

How do I go about deleting files/folders permanently.. I've quite a few GB worth of old Windows files I'd like to remove, but short of moving them to the rubbish bin & then emptying it I can't see any option to permanently delete I've tried rm -r/-f but am told there is no such file or folder.

I have a Nvidia GTX 670 are Linux drivers available & easy enough to install? I've also been told that the more interesting/useful software is to be found on alternative repo's can someone educate me?

Thanks for listening.

this for the Nvidia driver

sudo apt-add-repository ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install nvidia-current nvidia-settings

& about the the windows file you can use the disk-manage 

gnome-disks

& you can easily remove the windows partition
