I guess this makes me want to ask several questions.

1) You got no display using the nv driver that came with RC1?  Do you mean
during the install process, when you test the X configuration?  Did you try
running X after rebooting, since there have been reports of troubles with the
test in the install process?

2) Did you build from the Nvidia source RPM?

3) Did it build with no errors?
   When you "rpm --rebuild NVIDIA_kernel-1.0-3123.src.rpm" as root

4) What message did you get when you installed the driver RPM?
   When you "RPM -ivh NVIDIA_kernel-1.0-3123.i586.rpm" as root

5) What does the log file for Xfree86 say when you try starting it?

Basically, I think we need a lot more information before figuring out what is
going on.  Given that you have a set of properly built RPMs for the kernel and
the GLX, everything normally installs very smoothly, making me suspect that your
RPMs are not correct.

I have a Dell Inspiron 2650 and I installed Mandrake 9.1 RC 1 and the 
installation was great. When I configured X and tested my settings the screen 
went black and nothing happend. I rebooted and went to NVIDIA's website here 
http://www.nvidia.com/view.asp?IO=linux_display_1.0-3123  

Installed the kernel driver file and the glx driver file, I followed the 
instructions and edited XF86CONFIG-4 file type startx and it almost works then 
I get a failed to initialize NVdriver kernel module. My video card is a 16MB 
DDR NVIDIA GeForce2.-thanks

Seth
