Description of problem:
NVidia compile log (using NVidia AMD64 package)

Using: nvidia-installer ncurses user interface
-> License accepted.
-> No precompiled kernel interface was found to match your kernel;
would you li
   ke the installer to attempt to download a kernel interface for your
kernel f
   rom the NVIDIA ftp site (ftp://download.nvidia.com)? (Answer: No)
-> No precompiled kernel interface was found to match your kernel;
this means
   that the installer will need to compile a new kernel interface.
ERROR: The kernel header file
       '/lib/modules/2.6.5-1.356/build/include/linux/modversions.h'
does not
       exist.  The most likely reason for this is that the kernel
header files
       in '/lib/modules/2.6.5-1.356/build/include' have not been
configured.
ERROR: Installation has failed.  Please see the file
       '/var/log/nvidia-installer.log' for details.  You may find
suggestions
       on fixing installation problems in the README available on the
Linux
       driver download page at www.nvidia.com.
