But Fedora people can't really help you, because they can't see what nVidia
did that broke.
It is not what nVIDIA did that is the problem. It is a change in the way
driver modules are loaded in X.
Drivers used to be located in /usr/X11R6/lib64/modules/drivers. They are
now (as of FC5t1) in /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/drivers. nVIDIA's installer
assumes the old location and puts the drivers there and not where X now
wants them.

Yeah, because you get straightforward answers back from one of the actual
kernel developers. Man, that sucks.
No, because the answers were not helpful and usually abusive.
