Ok, build the driver using the proprietary package, and he's back up.

Well, *after* I ran nvidia-xconfig, since there was no xorg.conf, and
nothing in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d, which created /etc/X11/xorg.conf.

Now that he's up, which was my highest priority, I'm back to looking
around. I did a yum clean all, then yum --enablerepo=elrepo list
\*nvidia\*, and see
 * elrepo: mirror.symnds.com
so this was what the mirrorlist came up with. That there's something
screwy there.

So I just pointed my browser there, and found elrepo there under
distributions/elrepo. Anyone got any ideas why it finds that it's there,
but yum doesn't see the actual repo (and yes, the kmod-nvidia packages are
there)?
