I am the same guy who is still struggling with the installation of

someone to aid in the problem of not being able to install my nvidia
drivers. Thanks in advance.

FWIW, you *could*, as root, drop to runlevel 3, rmmod the nouveau
drivers, do a "akmods --force" and have the kmod-nvidia driver built,
then do an lsmod | grep nvidia and see if the nvidia driver was
modprobed (I think the akmods build will do the modprobe). If you
have nvidia in at that point then you should be able to do the
nvidia-xconfig and return to runlevel 5.

I did a runlevel drop to 3 now I can't get rpm -qa | grep nvidia* to work.
