Hi.
I'm one of the brains behind the rpms in question.

It seems hw accelerated OpenGL works to some extent, however this screen
saver blackout issue is new to me. If it can be fixed by removing
XFree86-Mesa-libGL, I'll add a Conflicts: XFree86-Mesa-libGL to the
nvidia-glx rpm. glxgears seems to work without removing that rpm though.
Installing with the downloader script on top of the rpms, or installing
the rpms on top of a script install, is not supported and may go either
way. It's only supposed to work on a clean system.
I'll look into this in a while.
