*lol*
nftpget ftp://ftp.iinet.net.au/pub/kernel/v2.5/linux-2.4.48.tar.bz2
(build, install, boot)
tar xvzf NVIDIA_kernel*
cd NVIDIA_kernel*
make

and it refuses to build having checked for a >2.4 kernel.

Sure, 2.5 isn't exactly what I want to use, but the point is it'll work 
for most 2.4 revisions, thats it. This is also true of a true open 
source driver... but they're a tad easier to fix *grin*.
