Nvidia driver now installed and GL screen savers working.
Just a note for anyone else. You need to run rpm -ivh rpm1 rpm2
where rpm1 and rpm2 are those mentioned by Christopher below. The two
packages are mutually dependent so need installing together.
Many thanks

Better yet, go to
http://rpmlivna.org and download their version of the
driver. Its installation routine is much more "Fedora friendly" than the
NVidia installer (uses RPM and doesn't step on other gl libraries).
For Fedora Core 3, browse to the following directory:
http://rpm.livna.org/fedora/3/i386/RPMS.stable/
>From there, you'll need:
1) kernel-modula-nvidia-<your kernel version>-1.0.7174-0.lvn.1.3.<your
Intel chip>.rpm
2) nvidia-glx-1.0.7174-0.lvn.1.3.<your Intel chip>.rpm
Just download, install and you're pretty much there.
Alternatively, you can build your own from the source RPM, but
installing these two will do the trick just as well on a FC3 system.
Good luck!
