Okay, that's now done, there are source packages available. So, to
compile an nvdia module, install the kernel in question, along with
the appropriate source and headers packages. For example:
http://kernels.bristolwireless.net/linux-image-2.6.29.2-vs2.3.0.36.12-beng_0.1_i386.deb
http://kernels.bristolwireless.net/linux-source-2.6.29.2-vs2.3.0.36.12-beng_0.1_all.deb
http://kernels.bristolwireless.net/linux-headers-2.6.29.2-vs2.3.0.36.12-beng_0.1_i386.deb
would be the choice on an 32-bit setup. Then install module-assistant
and run as root:
module-assistant a-i nvidia
to compile the nvidia module. Let me know how you get on.
cheers
