NVidia drivers with 2.4

Ok,
  It appears that the NVidia drivers don't want to work with the 2.4
kernel. I get the following:

(II) Module nvidia: vendor="NVIDIA Corporation"
        compiled for 4.0.1, module version = 1.0.4
(WW) module ABI minor version (2) is newer than the server's version (1)
(II) Loading /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/input/mouse_drv.o
(II) Module mouse: vendor="The XFree86 Project"
        compiled for 4.0, module version = 1.0.0
(II) NVIDIA: NVIDIA driver for: RIVATNT, RIVATNT2, RIVATNT2 (Ultra),
        RIVATNT2 (Vanta), RIVATNT2 (M64), RIVATNT2 (Integrated), GeForce 256,
        GeForce DDR, Quadro, GeForce2 GTS, , , , , ,
(--) Assigning device section with no busID to primary device
(--) Chipset GeForce DDR found
(II) Loading /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/libvgahw.a
(II) Module vgahw: vendor="The XFree86 Project"
        compiled for 4.0, module version = 0.1.0
(--) NVIDIA(0): Chipset: "GeForce DDR"
(**) NVIDIA(0): Depth 24, (--) framebuffer bpp 32
(==) NVIDIA(0): RGB weight 888
(==) NVIDIA(0): Default visual is TrueColor
(==) NVIDIA(0): Using HW cursor
(--) NVIDIA(0): Linear framebuffer at 0xE0000000
(--) NVIDIA(0): MMIO registers at 0xE8000000
(==) NVIDIA(0): Write-combining range (0xe0000000,0x400000)
XIO: fatal IO error 104 (Connection reset by peer) on X server ":0.0"
      after 0 requests (0 known processed) with 0 events remaining.

Anyone have any thoughts? Just wait on a new driver from NVidia?
