For sake of completeness (and findability for others), here's also what my "dmesg" output said:Error: API mismatch: the NVIDIA kernel module has the version 1.0-7184, but this X module has the version 1.0-9639. Please make sure that the kernel module and all NVIDIA driver compontens have the same version.
NVRM: RM/client version mismatch!!
NVRM: aborting to avoid catastrophe!
