OK Imissed the start of this thread. What makes you think it isn't working?
Try cat /proc/interrupts
If one of the interrupts has 'nvidia' next to it, then it is running.
What happens if you type
'modinfo nvidia-current'?

If that doesn't give you anything, remove and reinstall the above packages, but also install dkms, to make sure.
