Sorry Jafaruddin,

   I replied to your e-mail and realized that I misread the information 
you gave me.  Nevertheless, I came up with an error message while I 
tried to install the kmod-nvidia drivers.  How do I get rid of the 
conflicts with the kmod-nividia drivers.  Listed below is what happened 
when I tried to install the kmod-nividia drivers:
