That didn't work for me - it complained about not being able to find a binary 
for my architecture. Instead I forced the install of the nvidia-kernel-source 
package and built a new nvidia-kernel .deb (thus keeping true to the Debian 
way :) ). Then I was able to install nvidia-glx and get that working.
 Accelerated GL here we come!
