breaks the nvidia drivers.... installed from rpms?
now that dkms is in extras... i really hope the packagers of the
nvidia rpms look into it as making it easier to avoid updating
problems.
John Hull from Dell has packaged up the NVidia drivers that we release
for our Precision workstations, using DKMS.

dell-nvidia-7167-5dkms.src.rpm
dell-nvidia-7167-multiarch-5.tar.gz
I don't know where he's at with getting NVidia do to this work for
him, but as long as we've got to do it, it'll get done...
Thanks,
Matt
