I'm currently running Jaunty, the details on the nvidia site are for
Hardy (give or take) so the current version as of a few days ago is
2.6.28-11-generic, replace that version with whatever version kernel you
are running in the details below:

uname -r

If you want to patch your current kernel the steps to take are as
follows:

sudo su -
cd /usr/src
apt-get build-dep linux-image-2.6.28-11-generic
apt-get source linux-image-2.6.28-11-generic
patch -p0 < NVRM_512M_fix.txt
cd linux-2.6.28
cp /boot/config-2.6.28-11-generic debian/config/amd64/config.generic
CONCURRENCY_LEVEL=2 AUTOBUILD=1 NOEXTRAS=1 fakeroot debian/rules binary-generic
cd ..
dpkg -i linux-image-2.6.28-11-generic_2.6.28-11.36_amd64.deb

I'm not claiming the above is the best way to do this, merely that it
works for me, up until recently I was running 3G however I swapped out a
1G module for a 2G and now how 4G memory total and when I boot up I see
the nvidia logo and dmesg confirms the kernel module is being loaded on
bootup etc etc etc.
