As a couple of others have noted, the module you have is for 100.14.19, and
the current nvidia-glx is 169.07.
At present, module-assistant is failing to build current
nvidia-kernel-source. It claims it cannot find the source tarball. You may
need to build it by hand. To do so, unpack /usr/src/nvidia-kernel.tar.bz2
somewhere, cd into the directory and run:
fakeroot debian/rules binary-modules KVERS=`uname -r` KSRC=/usr/src/linux-headers-`uname -r`
This should produce a working package.
Hopefully module-assistant or nvidia-kernel-source will be fixed soon so we
can go back to using it!
