I'm running nouveau, which works really well so that's not a problem, however, the Nvidia file that you pointed me to says, "If your system is equipped with an X86-64 (AMD64/EM64T) processor, it is recommended that you switch to a 64-bit Linux kernel/distribution." and that applies to me, sadly. So before I complain I'd better get myself a 64 bit disto.
