This would be elrepo's driver, right? You'll want to uninstall
nvidia-x11-drv (which will take the kmod with it) and install
nvidia-x11-drv-304xx instead (which will pull in the 304 legacy driver.
You'll need to reinstall any dependent packages with it, so take notes
when you do the uninstall of nvidia-x11-drv. Too bad yum doesn't do a
'yum replace nvidia-x11-drv nvidia-x11-drv-304xx' or similar.
This was posted on the elrepo mailing list a while back; if you use the
elrepo drivers you really need to follow the elrepo list.
And this is at core an nvidia issue, since nvidia is the one changing
their drivers.
I've run into this on three CentOS 6+elrepo machines, including the
laptop I'm using right now; two desktops with GeForce 6000 series and
this laptop with a Quadro FX350M.
