Upgrading to the latest kernel and latest Nvidia Driver release (kernel 2.6.17.6 / NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-8762-pkg1.run) created some issues. I ended up getting the error.

(EE) Failed to load module "nvidia" (module does not exist, 0 )

The way I ended up getting around this issue was to tell the Nvidia Driver where the modules for xorg where. This was done with the following command;

sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-8762-pkg1.run --x-module-path=/usr/lib/xorg/modules/
