Nice to know that the RPM has the current required beta.  I did a yum 
info on xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-173xx, which shows it to be 173.14.15.  I'll 
have to try that the next time there is a kernel update.

I don't mind building the driver for a single machine.  I install enough 
non-rpm software so that it's not a problem.  If I maintained 50-100 
machines, then I would certainly use the RPM (and consider building RPMs 
for the other tools I use).

Thanks for the info.
