    where ARCH appears below, replace with k7 for amd athlon/athlon64
    processors or 686 for intel p3/p4 processors.

      # apt-get update
      # apt-get install nvidia-kernel-2.6.17-1-ARCH linux-image-2.6.17-1-ARCH
      # reboot
      # dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg

    i believe that should correctly install the kernel and modules and
    configure all relevant module loading goodness, but hey, what do i
    know? i've only ever used stock kernels on production redhat machines
    (gag).

    also, please include the output of the following (run as root on the console):

      # lsmod
      # cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log
      # cat /var/log/dmesg
