Its in the devel repo, no warning necessary.  They do not work though, despite 
correctly compiling and installing with the kernel.  The packages and the way 
the packages are built is working, which is what you'd expect from livna atm on 
that issue. :)  The driver, when fixed by nvidia, should be quickly usable with 
a new build of the packages.
