I'm afraid you missed it. http://elrepo.org/tiki/kmod-nvidia-304xx That page has a list of supported GPUs. This is all about the hardware you have and the version of Nvidia's driver that supports it. Which kernel version is _not_ relevant. You may also want to check out this post on the ELRepo's mailing list: http://lists.elrepo.org/pipermail/elrepo/2013-January/001587.html I quoted an essential part of it in my earlier post as well. I strongly suggest you subscribe to the ELRepo general mailing list. If you still have questions about the Nvidia-related packages offered by ELRepo, please ask on the ELRepo's list. Akemi
