I followed the instructions at that page.

Downloaded the files from 
http://www.leemhuis.info/files/fedorarpms/MISC.lvn/graphics/

Did the: rpmbuild --rebuild --target `uname -m` nvidia-kmod-*.src.rpm

I then installed xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-1.0.8178-0.lvn.5.i386.rpm and 
kmod-nvidia-1.0.8178-0.lvn.3.2.6.15_1.1969_FC5.i686.rpm

I noticed the xorg.conf file was already modified by these RPMs so I 
started X. The screen went all grey and then nothing.

Does anyone have instructions for FC5 that work?
