Hi Kenny,
There should be a package for amd-64, too. The kernel-source must be built by
yourself and it will have the right architecture.
Look at my entry in /etc/sources.list
----------
deb http://snapshot.debian.net/archive pool nvidia-graphics-drivers
deb-src http://snapshot.debian.net/archive pool nvidia-graphics-drivers
--------
Just add those two and update your list. I used aptitude to install the
packages, as the commandline tool let me not install the older packages.
-----
I do not know, if these two have to be added, too. Maybe they will not work.
-----
deb http://snapshot.debian.net/archive pool nvidia-kernel-src
deb-src http://snapshot.debian.net/archive pool nvidia-kernel-src
------
It might be necessarry to uninstall the latest nvidia-packages.
Good luck !
Hans
