        Also - the nvidia-kmod-common is not in cache - and yum install
        nvidia-kmod-common does nothing. Having to download rpm's by
        hand surely feels not correct ? 

     Yes this is not correct behavior and I have not seen this before. I am
    sure the guys at livna are aware of it and it will be resolved soon. As
    long as everything is working on your machine and your nvidia drivers
    are working your not going to benefit a ton from these new drivers
    anyway. Personally I will just be patient no reason to go downloading
    things by hand and working around yum. my 2 cents anyway.
      

I got the 3 updates again this morning and again they failed due to some 
problem. It appeared to be a dependent file that conflicts with one 
already installed. This is not the usual yum update action.

As you see rday I was talking about some update that I was not getting, 
had nothing to do with Nvidia. That was loston who was talking about 
nvidia.

As usual rday you go out of your way to show me up and instead screw up.
