Why don't you use the packages from RPM Fusion? They have packaged that beta version already.

Nice to know that the RPM has the current required beta. I did a yum info on xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-173xx, which shows it to be 173.14.15. I'll have to try that the next time there is a kernel update.
I don't mind building the driver for a single machine. I install enough non-rpm software so that it's not a problem. If I maintained 50-100 machines, then I would certainly use the RPM (and consider building RPMs for the other tools I use).
Thanks for the info.
