Umm 2.6 compiled but no Video Card Drivers

Folks,

I managed to get 2.6.0test2 kernel compiled and installed unfortunately
my old kernel uses *.o.gz modules and the new modutils won't insert them
so I am stuck with the 2.6 kernel for now.

I have network and all my major services that I need but I'm lacking a
nv driver the NVIDIA site doesn't support 2.6 yet and I can find any
mention of the nv driver that is usually in the 2.4.x kernels.

Any Idea?

Fortunately I installed all the console tools so I can access my
computer ok over the net via ssh but I would like to get my X server
going again.

James
