After that, I did an 'enable restricted driver' command thing from the command line. I forget what it exactly was, but it's the equivalent to the popup you get in the GUI after you install telling you to enable the restricted hardware. After that, things worked.
I checked my X11 logs. The drivers seems to be loading fine.
