Okay here we go, hand-typed thru Links to you:

NV: Could not open control device /dev/nvidiactl (No such file or directory).
(EE) NVIDIA(0): Failed to initialize the NVIDIA kernel module!
(EE) NVIDIA(0): *** Aborting ***
(EE) NVIDIA(0): Screen(s) found but none have a usable configuration.

Fatal server error:
No screens found.


So I did finally get it installed (not based on anyone's instructions, based on what I remember from my slackware install--it had to be done in two pieces!) .

But I'm still stuck.
What next?
