I have tried the nVidia driver (freshrpms version) and also various
other versions using the freshrpms source rpm as a basis for my own rpm.
 As I have explained in this thread, these drivers don't work for me for
various reasons.  However, there is still something that I can (and
will) try (using the 7184 version with the composite extension disabled).

And as I've stated on a few occasions, if the nvidia driver isn't
working, you should seek assistance on nvnews.net with a bug report.
Repeating over and over that they don't work with no information isn't
going to fix anything.
