Attempting to start 3ddesktop server.
Error: API mismatch: the NVIDIA kernel module is version 1.0.7167, but
this library is version 1.0.7174. Please be sure that your kernel
module and all NVIDIA driver files have the same driver version.
Daemon started. Run 3ddesk to activate.

Should be on apt too... Search for it. If not remove those libs and module, and use the NVIDIA installer

Odd.

I have nvidia module 7167 installed, yet 3ddesk worked out of the box for me.

Are you by any chance using unstable and test repositories?
