I can't get NVidia drivers to compile for a 64 bit kernel on my new machine.
This is the log output when I tryied to run NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-1.0-6629-pkg2.run when using the 2.6.10-9-amd64-generic kernel with the headers package installed (although I've tried it with several different 64 bit kernels):

Your kernel was configured to include rivafb support as
a loadable kernel module.
The rivafb driver conflicts with the NVIDIA driver; the
NVIDIA kernel module will still be built and installed,
but be aware that the NVIDIA driver will not be able to
function properly if the rivafb module is loaded!
*** Failed rivafb module sanity check, but continuing! ***

The driver compiles fine using non 64 bit kernels with the appropriate installer. Can anyone help?
