Install Nvidia & disable Nouveau

Hi,

I have one machine sitting quite content with Squeeze since 6 came out.

And now we play with another.

I have forgotten how to install the Nvidia driver on Squeeze and have done it successfully before using the bin file from Nvidia but this time the installer will not disable Nouveau.

I cannot also find any package as per the wiki called "nvidia-installer"
