Nvidia driver

Hi.
I just bought a new PC, a DualCore 2.2GHz, with an Nvidia 8600 GT
graphic card (which is for the moment a 7300LE, because the 8600 was not
available at the time I purchased the PC), and a PT890 motherboard.
I installed the last SVN version of LFS, everything working fine. I then
installed the base of BLFS upto X, still fine.
But when I tried to install the last Nvidia kernel, I had this problem
while launching X :
NVIDIA: could not open the device file /dev/nvidia0 (Function not
implemented)
I think I saw the driver work for a Mandriva, so this must be me missing
some obvious point, but Googling the error message didn't work out as
well as I would have thought.
When I look at dmesg after loading the nvidia driver, I see this :
NVRM: request_irq() failed (-38)
What can I do to solve my problem ? Is it a BIOS problem, a driver
problem...
Thanks for any help.
\bye
