No X - Problems with loading Nvidia module

["KS" <lists04@fastmail.fm>]

Hi,

I thought of restarting my machine after the browser was getting stuck
at some websites since last night. On restarting, X couldn't start.  The
error log indicated that the Nvidia module couldnot be loaded. Below are
the last few lines from the XFree86 log:

(II) Setting vga for screen 0.
(**) NVIDIA(0): Depth 24, (--) framebuffer bpp 32
(==) NVIDIA(0): RGB weight 888
(==) NVIDIA(0): Default visual is TrueColor
(==) NVIDIA(0): Using gamma correction (1.0, 1.0, 1.0)
(--) NVIDIA(0): Linear framebuffer at 0xE0000000
(--) NVIDIA(0): MMIO registers at 0xFD000000
(EE) NVIDIA(0): Failed to load the NVIDIA kernel module!
(EE) NVIDIA(0):  *** Aborting ***
(II) UnloadModule: "nvidia"
(EE) Screen(s) found, but none have a usable configuration.

Fatal server error:
no screens found


My machine is running unstable:
~$ uname -a
Linux gurh 2.6.11-1-686 #1 Mon Jun 20 22:00:38 MDT 2005 i686 GNU/Linux

Any suggestions to how to get X working with nvidia module?

Thanks in advance,
/KS
