I believe that nv is deprecated and that nouveau is now the nvidia default.

Installing the nvidia-kernel source or dkms should work although the install 
post-process can be quite frightening: Any files or diversions left over from 
nvidia's proprietary install or done by user will foul it (though the results 
might work anyway).

Rt patches have, however, made versions of these drivers uncompilable in the 
past.
