Sorry - things have moved on! I installed NVidia over two years ago, on
Wheezy. I initially used nouveau, but it wasn't satisfactory, so as seemed
to be the only alternative at the time, I installed the relevant proprietary
driver from the NVidia website.
It works beautifully. Apart from updates, I have done nothing for over two
years!
I could look up details, I hope, but they are unlikely to be helpful to you,
having seen this.
