Joseph,

Have you tried to compile it?
According to the Nvidia site, the driver found here -
http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_ia32_195.36.15.html
should work. You need to have the kernel headers installed or the install
will fail.
The "thing" is that you need to recompile it every time a new kernel is
installed.

Sergio
