nv driver and gnome broken

[gjohnson5]

You have to downgrade.  I was getting the same thing last night and
downgrading fixed the problem.
When using xorg-x11-drv-nv-2.1.6-6.fc9 I was getting this error starting the
X Server.
Rebuilding synaptics , xorg-x11-server , xorg-x11-server-utils, and
xorg-x11-drivers-nv from src.rpm did not fix the problem

Error below:
