wgetting the tarballs is no longer necessary; NVIDIA now allows them to be
distributed.

When you install the Debian nvidia packages, the tarballs are put in
/usr/src.

Once you are happy with your setup, I recommend going into both dselect and
aptitude, and putting a hold on both nvidia packages. Otherwise they are
automatically upgraded, and (for me anyway) that's not a good thing.
