Did you not find any errors in the log file (/var/log/Xorg.0.log)?  An error
is highlighted by a line starting with: (EE)

I've never used Atrpms.  I can't comment.

Below is the procedure I follow.

Hope this helps,
Michael

--------------

* Execute the following command :

# sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-X.X-XXXX-pkgX.run
Choose to replace the existing driver.
Choose not to download precompiled header files and then build kernel.
Choose OK for the rest (I believe that's it; if there are other questions,
they should be self-evident).

* Edit the X config file '/etc/X11/xorg.conf' file by doing the following:
	-In the Module section, make sure you have the following line:
		Load "glx"
	-In the Module section, remove the following lines:
		Load "dri"
		Load "GLcore"
	-In the appropriate device section (the one for video cards),
replace the line:
		Driver "nv" (orDriver "vesa")
	With:
		Driver "nvidia"
	-In the same device section, you can also update the VendorName and
BoardName 
	- In the same device section, add the following line:
		Option "NoLogo" (optional to not show nvidia Logo at X
startup)
	- In the Monitor section, replace the lines:
		HorizSync 31.5 - 37.9
		VertRefresh 50.0 - 70.0
	With what is appropriate for your monitor
	- In the Screen section, Display subsection, replace the line:
		Modes "640x480"
	With what is appropriate for your monitor
		(e.g.: Modes "1024x768" "640x480")
