Or you do it even less painful, go into runlevel 3 (comon it's not that
bad, sooner or later you have to do it), then run
"NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-4496-pkg2.run --add-this-kernel", it will create
"NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-4496-pkg2-custom.run", run it and then edit
xf86config as it tell you to do and everything works fine (at least it
did for me!)
