What I would do would be unistalling the RPM - Then download the driver from NVidia and follow the instructions.

I think the current version is called - NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-4496-pkg2.run

Type "sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-4496-pkg2.run" to install the driver.

Answer yes if you agree to the license terms - It could be the simplest solution to your problem.
