Well actually as of lenny it became a bit tricker to get the nvidia
driver going. I should update the howto to fix that.
In /etc/X11/xorg.conf you have to add 'Driver "nvidia"' to the section
for the video card.
Another way to do that is to install the package 'nvidia-xconfig' and
running that tool, and it should automatically add the Driver line to
the xorg.conf for you. I am still experimenting a bit with that to
decide how to add that to the howto.
