Wow, I'm really sorry. I totally screwed up the directions.
For the 'repackage' step, you need to do:
Try that, then try installing the new package:Code:dpkg-deb --build name_of_new_package.deb
Sorry for the screwup!Code:dpkg -i name_of_new_package.deb
Let me know if that works for you.

When I built the package it returned this:
dpkg-deb: warning: 'my_tmp_dir/DEBIAN/control' contains user-defined field 'Modaliases'
dpkg-deb: warning: ignoring 1 warning about the control file(s)
am I supposed to modify the control file also?
Here's a fix for your original problem, installing nvidia drivers on the 3.0.x kernel from my sticky:

Oneiric has the first fix in this post, included in it already, Natty needs it, as I don't think it was included... Reason? The 3.0.x kernel was not released for Natty, but is in the later Oneiric dev builds already. These fixes we found while testing Oneiric when the kernel numbering schema changed.
Hope this helped.
