Only one or two days.  Is there some reason that the open source
community couldn't get together on this and have the module ship at the
same time as the kernel ?  

So I'd have to teach my mom to make sure to not boot the new kernel for
a few days and, as a matter of fact, check that the new driver is
installed before booting it.  In effect, teach her to rpm -q
kmod-nvidia ?  Yeah, that seems user friendly.
