This is not rocket science :-)

For my x86_64 machine:

# rpm -i nvidia-kmod-173.14.12-2.lvn9.src.rpm
# rpm -i buildsys-build-rpmfusion-9.1-9.lvn9.src.rpm

# cd /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES
# vi buildsys-build-rpmfusion-kerneldevpkgs-*
s/11-97/14-108/g
# cd ../SPECS
# rpmbuild -bb buildsys-build-rpmfusion.spec
# cd ../RPMS/x86_64
# rpm -Uvh buildsys-build-rpmfusion-*
# cd ../../SPECS
# rpmbuild -bb nvidia-kmod.spec
# cd ../RPMS/x86_64
# rpm -i kmod-nvidia-2.6.25.14-108.fc9.x86_64-173.14.12-2.fc9.x86_64.rpm
# telinit 3
Log in on console as root
# telinit 5

If "rpm -i" complains about packages already installed, they might
need to be removed first.
