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)? mark
Here's what the same operation looks like on my box:

Just a thought, have you tried flushing yum's metadata? I have run across a couple of instances where yum seems to get a bit... retentive and won't retrieve new metadata for one or more repositories. I usually run "yum clean metadata" or "yum clean all", then re-try the operation. Unless it is something *I* have boogered badly it usually works.
