 Yes Just follow the instructions in the Nvidia text (you can find it at the 
bottom of the Nvidia linux download page)

Yes it works with XFree4.x

BTW: if your kernel is non standard you should use the .src.rpm files and  
intall them with 'rpm --rebuild'      I do that anyway.

Also I have checked the mandrakeuser rpms. They contain two patches. One 
called mandrakeconf, and the other one is a patch for devfs.
