As explained above, nVidia has now split its Linux driver so that the default install only supports the newer video cards. Please try the alternative modules: nvidia-kernel-legacy-96xx nvidia-glx-legacy-96xx or nvidia-kernel-legacy-71xx nvidia-glx-legacy-71xx depending on the model number of your card.
