No, no luck!

This is the error from startx:

NVIDIA: could not open the device file /dev/nvidiactl (No such file or
directory).
(EE) NVIDIA(0): Failed to initialize the NVIDIA kernel module! Please
ensure
(EE) NVIDIA(0): that there is a supported NVIDIA GPU in this system, and
(EE) NVIDIA(0): that the NVIDIA device files have been created properly.
(EE) NVIDIA(0): Please consult the NVIDIA README for details.
(EE) NVIDIA(0):  *** Aborting ***
(EE) Screen(s) found, but none have a usable configuration.

And yes there is a Nvidia GPU in my system (at least when I'm
running 6.2):-)
