Good, you're now trying to install the correct version.
then tried it again and got the following error.
Your kernel was configured to include nvidiafb support!
The nvidiafb driver conflicts with the NVIDIA driver, please
reconfigure your kernel and *disable* nvidiafb support, then
try installing the NVIDIA kernel module again.
Looks like you haven't done that yet, right?
Haven't got it installed yet. Should I just buy a new nVidia card? I
really wouldn't mind, I just don't want to get a new one if I'm going to
have the same problems. Thanks.
