Do you have these installed?
	glibc-headers-2.3.2-95.6
	glibc-kernheaders-2.4-8.34

This is on a TAo Linux box, so the versions may vary slightly, but if
you're missing the "kernel headers", then it's the second of this pair
that you'll need (I'm sure you need the other one too, but that's not the
apparent main issue here).

As to why the standard "nv" driver doesn't work for you, I've no clue.
