nvidia drivers from freshrpms.net

Here's my uname -a:
Linux desktop 2.6.18-1.2798.fc6xen #1 SMP Mon Oct 16 15:11:19 EDT 2006 
i686 athlon i386 GNU/Linux

And rpm -qva | grep kernel:

kernel-xen-devel-2.6.18-1.2798.fc6
kernel-headers-2.6.18-1.2798.fc6
kernel-devel-2.6.18-1.2798.fc6
kernel-doc-2.6.18-1.2798.fc6
kernel-xen-2.6.18-1.2798.fc6

How can I check I have the correct packages for my architecture?

Besides, the problem seems to be xen-related (see my other message, I 
moved from can't load kernel module to blank screen after statx). How to 
disable it?
