While in a terminal window enter init 3, as root. This should stop X. Or you could boot with a 3 (runlevel) at the end of the kernel command line.
Okay, now I'm a little confused. Is this driver package from nvidia going to update my hardware drivers in the kernel also? Or is that needed? Also, don't I need a better monitor configuration than Generic VGA or whatever the default for an unrecognized monitor is? I could probably get away with that as long as the card driver can still do higher res than 800x600 and the monitor doesn't balk.
I feel so dumb here - I've been doing this stuff for a long time, but it all seems completely new and different enough to be a problem. (sigh)
