I was able to install the nVidia driver on Fedora Core 6, a clean install...
yum kmod-nvidia...
It installed w/o any error and I could see the Logo when I restarted X and when I did glxinfo|grep direct... It said Direct X was rendering. However when I went to change to resolution there was no other resoultion to change to and it was stuck at 800 by 600.
I VIed /etc/X11/xorg.conf and decided to change nVidia to nv, however when I do that the driver doesn't work and grep direct outputs errors. I was wondering what I should do b/c I've been using linux for all of two months I'm pretty much a newb...
btw here is my xorg.conf
