Had same problem today with 2.6.13-r5.
Turned out that nvidia module was not loaded :) - so a simple modprobe nvidia fixed the problem.

Has anyone got Nvidia to work with Kernel 2.6.14 ?
I had it working with 2.6.12 , but got an error with 2.6.14 :
"can't initialise Nvidia module, no qualified screen available"
(or words to that effect).  I have recompiled Nvidia etc.
No problems here with the latest ~x86 stuff. I have a Geforce 4 Ti-4600.

In case anyone has advice, the lines I get are:

 (EE) NVIDIA(0): Failed to initialise NVIDIA kernel module!
 (EE) NVIDIA(0): *** aborting ***
 (EE) Screen(s) found, but none have usable configuration

The cause may be a kernel configuration line which I changed
without realising its whole effect.  I'm using Nvidia version 6629 .

Thanks to everyone who has replied: I will investigate further myself.
