Thanks, and sorry for being dense, but when you say 'the 196 driver' (or 1xx driver, as you say in your howto), what should I be getting. I seem to be unable to find any debian packages with that number in it. You have a nice table that explains how to substitute 'nvidia-kernel-legacy-71xx-source' for 'nvidia-kernel-source' for an old card, but I can't make anything similar to work no matter where I plug in the magical 169. Obviously I am doing something wrong here... The plain sudo m-a a-i -i -t -f nvidia-kernel-source gets to the compile errors I reported earlier.
