maybe initscripts should do something like:


if [[ -e /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/video/NVdriver* ]]; then
        perl -pi -e 's!^(\s*)#AUTODISABLED!\1!g; \
                     s!"nv" #AUTODISABLED!"nvidia"!g;' /etc/X11/XF86Config-4
else    
        perl -pi -e 's!^(\s*Driver "nv)(dia")!\1"#AUTODISABLED!g; \
                     s!^(\s*)(Load.*glx)!\1#AUTODISABLED\2!g' etc/X11/XF86Config-4
fi

description: 
Users upgrading from 9.0 to 9.1 using a NVidia GeForce card will end up with no
working X configuration.


Suggested fix:
The installation needs to detect the kernel module (via rpm) and remove it or
parse the XF86config-4 file for the entry "nvidia".
If any of those are found a new XF86config-4 should be written.
