X and NVIDIA problems

I'm having terrible issues with X server today. I fresh installed
Fedora Rawhide today, all is updated. When I rebooted my computer the
X didn't even start. Not even with the default xorg.cong nv module !?

Next I tried to install NVIDIA driver with no luck. I patched driver
with all the patches I could find on nvidia forums, nothing. I even
tried to run installer with --x-module-path=/usr/lib/xorg/modules (is
this even correct)

Now I really need help to get my X working... I can't stay in text
mode much longer.

My question is: Is there a way to install NVIDIA driver in todays
rawhide, and please tell me how ? Which patch to use, what flags to
pass,... Thank you. (kernel 2.6.15-1.1863_FC5)
