On AMD64 system with an MX 4000 video card.

I have made it through an installation, installing everything from the Packages (GRP) disk.   This has been a no-net install so far.

Trying to configure Xorg, after installing nvidia-kernel driver and nvidia-glx.
    Xorg -configure
then
    X -config /root/xorg.conf.new

I also did "modprobe nvidia"

I am receiving the message

    (EE) NVIDIA(0): Failed to initialize the NVIDIA kernel module!

Then the process aborted.

I haven't found (yet) any suggestions, except to install a newer version of the nvidia-kernel.

I fear I will have to upgrade the whole system now, once I can get online, which may be days away.

Thanks for any suggestions.
