LinuxQuestions.org - Trying to install Nividia driver

I downloaded a driver from Nividia: NVIDIA-Linux-x86-96.43.01-pkg1.run

I tried to run this:

Code:

sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86-96.43.01-pkg1.run

and I received the following message:

Using: nvidia-installer ncurses user interface
-> License accepted.
-> No precompiled kernel interface was found to match your kernel; would you li
ke the installer to attempt to download a kernel interface for your kernel f
rom the NVIDIA ftp site (ftp://download.nvidia.com)? (Answer: Yes)
ERROR: Unable to connect to download.nvidia.com (unknown host)
-> 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.
ERROR: You do not appear to have libc header files installed on your system.
Please install your distribution's libc development package.
ERROR: Installation has failed. Please see the file
'/var/log/nvidia-installer.log' for details. You may find suggestions
on fixing installation problems in the README available on the Linux
driver download page at www.nvidia.com.

I tried: apt-get install libc
but it said there was no such package. All I have is text mode now, and I don't know how to get a list of available packages for Apt, or which one I need.

How do I add download.nvidia.com as a known host?
Appreciate any help in installing this driver.
Thanks.
