Lawrence,

 If you got the drivers from the nVidia website and you are in runlevel 3 you don't need to do an uninstall to do the update as the
nVidia module is not loaded yet.  just run "yum update" and it will update, although beware what it updates to as far as your video
driver(s) are concerned.
