I finally got around to updating MythTV to the current 023.1-241 packages.
Along the way I updated my two frontend hosts from CentOS 5.4 to 5.5 along
with the current kernel. Both have Nvidia graphics and I updated to the
current nvidia-graphics260.19.21 driver on both.

On one host the upgrade went without a hitch. On the other X wouldn't come up.
I finally narrowed it down to a missing symlink:
/usr/lib64/xorg/modules/drivers/nvidia_drv.so. Once I manually created the
symlink to nvidia-graphics-260.19.21/nvidia-graphics-260.19.21_drv.so, X came
up fine.

I don't know if this was user error or a bug. I was able to use
nvidia-graphics-switch to switch over to the older 190.53 driver and then
successfully boot into the older kernel. The symlink *was* created with the
older driver. But switching to the newer driver would cause the symlink to 
vanish.

But, on the working host, the symlink was created as expected.
