I'm trying to build Linux 2.6.30 on my computer, as there is a feature that I require that isn't in Linux 2.6.28. I do this:

make gconfig
fakeroot make-kpkg clean
fakeroot make-kpkg --append-to-version=-racecar56 kernel_image --initrd binary
All seemed to work well. When I installed the debian package, dpkg freaks out like this:
Examining /etc/kernel/postinst.d.
run-parts: executing /etc/kernel/postinst.d/dkms
run-parts: executing /etc/kernel/postinst.d/nvidia-common
run-parts: /etc/kernel/postinst.d/nvidia-common exited with return code 20
Failed to process /etc/kernel/postinst.d at /var/lib/dpkg/info/linux-image-2.6.30-racecar56.postinst line 1186.
dpkg: error processing linux-image-2.6.30-racecar56 (--install):
subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 2
Errors were encountered while processing:
linux-image-2.6.30-racecar56


What's with NVIDIA? I don't have anything made by them on this computer.
And, what's up with the error anyway?

Forgot to mention, I'm using this tutorial:
