There is a good mini-HowTo about installing the nvidia driver, look at
www.linuxdoc.org

Some things you didn't write about:

Does the kernel module NVdriver load porperly? (insmod NVdriver)
Have you changed Driver from "nv" to "nvidia" in section Device in
/etc/X11/XF86Config-4?
In Section Module is Load "glx" enabled?
