Thanks everyone for your help,I finally got it up and running,after I
reinstalled :-(( some files really got damaged trying nvidia with the
.run and Livna .src.rpm's.After yum update to kernel 2188 I yum install
nvidia-glx,kernel-module-nvidia then in XF86Config changed it as needed
but added "ChipID" "0x0342" in 'device' section killed X and I'm away.
