First I had to learn how to exit the X server and to enter again in X windows. Then I installed the package as explained as root . Something had to be built. Then as root with the old driver I configured my /etc/X/xorg.conf file as indicated and then I restarted again the X server and crossed my fingers. First I saw nothing but then I saw a splash screen with nvidia on it and everything went well. Finally you can run nvidia-settings to adjust if necessary.
