It'd be great if one of the moderators could make this post sticky.
The 1.0-6629 NVIDIA Linux driver release for Linux/x86 and Linux/x86-64 may not work correctly with Linux 2.6.10 out-of-the box, depending on your configuration. If you do not wish to wait for an updated NVIDIA driver release to address this problem, you can solve it by downloading the attached patch files and following the steps below:
# sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-1.0-6629-pkg0.run --extract-only
# cd NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-1.0-6629-pkg0
# patch -p0 < /path/to/NVIDIA_kernel-1.0-6629-1165235.diff.txt
# patch -p0 < /path/to/NVIDIA_kernel-1.0-6629-1171869.diff.txt
