In fact the drivers was build and installed, but when you try to install nvidia-glx there is an error about "failed dependencies, nvidia-kernel" is needed"). I have not the package nvidia-kernel rebuilt and I thought that the crashes could be due to that.Just the nvidia.o is present in /usr/src/RPM/BUILD/NVIDIA-KERNEL/ and doing from this directory a make install it runs, but with the mentioned crashes.
