Hi, I just upgraded to VL 5.1.1 SOHO, and for some reason, I can't get the nvidia driver to work! I have tryed several different versions of the driver, and they all give me the same thing, "unable to build nvidia kernel module"
I have a PNY Technologys Verto, with the GForce 4 chipset.
Here is the log file it spit out:

ke the installer to attempt to download a kernel interface for your kernel f

ERROR: Unable to connect to download.nvidia.com (temporary DNS error (try again
later))
-> No matching precompiled kernel interface was found on the NVIDIA ftp site;
this means that the installer will need to compile a kernel interface for
your kernel.
