Just because you have answered the question four or five times doesn't make
you any less wrong. While the nvidia-drivers in the apt repositories
don't, currently work with 2.6 kernels, the official drivers from
nVidia work fine, provided you use the latest ones.
5336 definitely works fine straight from nVidia, with no modifications or
hacking around, you just need to make sure you have the kernel headers
installed for the kernel you want to install it in, as per usual.
