Well, that failed miserably. X wouldn't start at all. I had to edit grub 
to get to a command line, yum remove kmod-nvidia*, reinstall 
kmod-nvidia, and then rebooted. The lines in xorg.conf are now back to:

Section "Device"
     Identifier  "Videocard0"
     Driver      "nvidia"
EndSection

Any other ideas...without you guys I'm way out of my element...
