`npm install mongodb` raises an error

I'm just trying to find out mongodb, when I try to install mongodb for node, I got an error like below.

By the way, my environment: ubuntu 10.04

+ node v0.6.9

. Also I use nvm which change node version locally.

zhkzyth@geek:~/codeRep/Nodejs---MongoDB$ npm install mongodb
npm http GET https://registry.npmjs.org/mongodb
npm http 304 https://registry.npmjs.org/mongodb
npm http GET https://registry.npmjs.org/bson/0.1.5
npm http 304 https://registry.npmjs.org/bson/0.1.5

> bson@0.1.5 install /home/zhkzyth/codeRep/Nodejs---MongoDB/node_modules/mongodb/node_modules/bson
> node install.js || (exit 0)

I don't believe you can install it on Node.js versions earlier than 0.6.19. This issue was raised on the mongodb github issue page and has been updated to failure due to Node switching to using gyp to build the extension.
