I'd already read up on the mailing list so I set CC=gcc32 straight
off. I'm using 4496 which I downloaded some time ago, and just
transferred from my old partition.

I checked out the link to http://www2.educ.umu.se/~peter/nvidia/ but
the P4 directory turned me off. I've had a look at your site but the
layout is a bit confusing for me. I did download an RPM since you sent
the link. I run the stock FC kernel so it errored on install. I forced
it with --nodeps (what the hell, the install is only a day old...) but
the nvidia.o module did not load (big surprise). I also got errors on
installing the RPM to do with atrpm type commands. I could not find any
instructions with rpm -qpi <rpm> - where should I be looking?
