If you try to modprobe the nvidia-driver you get: "nvidia: Unknown symbol pm_unregister". I found onother one who has the same problem: http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=67068&page=3

I think the nvidia-driver has to be dropped.
This task depends upon

NVRM: loading NVIDIA Linux x86 NVIDIA Kernel Module 1.0-7174 Tue Mar 22 06:44: 39 PST 2005
as you see here it works, seems your package is wrong, you need this one:
3b827a41d1fc75f5eca80c2da061b63c nvidia-legacy-1.0.7174-23.pkg.tar.gz
else it will not work with 2.6.17
