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.
