    The NVIDIA drivers attempt to use the AGPGART, and then NVgart in that
    order. I'm thinking that you possibly don't have AGPGART support in you
    kernel. Check is using "insmod agpgart".

    Apart from that, try building either an older, or newer version. Do you
    have the appropriate kernel-headers package available (or a kernel source
    tree)?

    There are also a few options. I suggest running the NVIDIA installer with
    the "-e" option, for expert mode. That way you can ensure things are
    (ideally) being installed correctly. At the same time, ensure you select
    the YES option when asked if you want to install the NVIDIA OpenGL headers.

    Cheers

    Tim
