Open up a console and issue this command as root:
init 3
That will kill X and drop you to a console. Install the NVIDIA drivers
and make the necessary changes to your XF86Config file as mentioned in
the driver's README.
Then, as root, issue this command:
init 5
That will take you make to the X login. If X crashes when it tries to
start, try issuing this command as root:
modprobe nvidia
For some reason when I upgrade drivers, the new driver doesn't get
installed into the kernel for some reason. That command will do it for you.
Enjoy,
Matt
