Also note that nvidia either ignores or screws up settings set with
the display panel after the real drivers are installed. I forget the
name of the config utility that gets installed with the rpms at the

it out.

In Applications > System Tool > nVidia Display Settings I am now referred to nvidia-xconfig. "You do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver. Please edit your X configuration file (just run nvidia-xconfig as root) and restart the X-server.

I also discovered that I now have 2 screen resolutions: 640x480 & 800 x600, but my LCD can take more than that. So there is an improvement after following the installation advices.

There are now a couple of Nvidia options in the hardware part of
System > Administration > Display but I was thrown out of X using one of them, so I have dropped that so far something is obviously missing.

Then: nvidia-config is quite elusive. It does not execute on my computer (under root) I dont find it in Add/Remove software, yum search does not help much, nor does

rpm -q --filesbypkg  so where could it be?
