nvidia support needs a kmdl that matches the driver and the kernel. The
only kmdls on site at present are for 3.3.0-4 and there are none for
nvidia - only alsa and v4l. Try later with that kernel. But there
might be a problem too with the name of the kmdl above; it looks as if
it may be malformed. Just keep an eye on dl.atrpms.net to see what's there.
