I just tried installing nvidia-graphics using the new smart.  I did smart
install nvidia-graphics.  It grabbed all the correct packages.  +5 for
correctly handling my x86_64.  +5 more for picking the right kernel mod. 
Everything installed perfectly.  I believe we are on the dawn of a new era. 
This could be one of the killer apps.

Just one little question.  What is the recommended procedure to update my
kernel nvidia mod using smart with atrpms?
