Notes for RPMForge users
Users migrating from the rpmforge dkms package are advised to uninstall the 
dkms-nvidia driver before attempting to install kmod-nvidia.
There is a potential conflict between elrepo and rpmforge in that both 
repositories provide the nvidia-x11-drv package. If you are using the yum 
priorities plugin then the priority for elrepo and rpmforge should be set to 
the same value to avoid dependency resolution failures, or rpmforge should be 
temporarily disabled whilst installing kmod-nvidia and nvidia-x11-drv. For 
example:


Other than that, I think I'd consult their mailing list as those folks may have 
more insight how to deal with moving to their repos.
