Can you be more specific? What do you mean by a bit unstable?
kmod-nvidia-96xx is still in the testing repo because no one has yet
confirmed the package works at all.
If it's a driver related issue then you should report it to NVIDIA here
attaching the appropriate nvidia-bug-report.log file:
http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=46678
and if it's a packaging issue you should report it here:
http://elrepo.org/bugs
Hope that helps.
