I downloaded the latest driver for my card -- it goes to compile a kernel interface and it runs into an issue:
ERROR: Unable to find the kernel source tree for the currently running kernel. Please make sure you have installed the kernel source files for your kernel and that they are properly configured.

To compile the Nvidia driver you need the
kernel-source package
. That said there are pre compiled Nvidia drivers in the repo. If you're going to use them, you might want to have a look at this wiki page:

Cool deal, didn't realize you had the source in your repo. I prefer to have that in any case
