Just the stock F10 drivers. Installed the card, rebooted, ran
system-config-display and it detected the nvidia.

Not knowingly. Anything specific I should look for? The
/boot/grub/grub.conf section (default 0) that we are booting from is:
title Fedora (2.6.27.12-170.2.5.fc10.i686)
        root (hd0,0)
        kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.27.12-170.2.5.fc10.i686 ro
root=UUID=891802db-5af5-41d3-84a1-2de2803dfe5a quiet irqpoll
        initrd /initrd-2.6.27.12-170.2.5.fc10.i686.img

No. I will check that next boot, but these symptoms are almost
identical to those when we only had the builtin intel graphics. After
installing the nvidia card and moving the monitor cable to it, the bios
boot screens show up on the monitor via the nvidia card, which sort of
indicates that the bios is not trying to use the intel graphics.
