Hi Todd,

ELRepo is a separate project from EPEL. These NVidia packages have
ELRepo in the name, so they come from ELRepo. You might try the ELRepo
mailing lists. http://lists.elrepo.org/mailman/listinfo/elrepo

Thank you Ken.  Your tip lead me to someone who knew how to help.

Solved:

Phil over on the ELRepo mailing list helped me solve this.

The post install scripts were not recreating /etc/X11/xorg.conf.

Solution:

  AFTER installing the drivers (they will rename xorg.conf on you), run:

ln -s /etc/X11/XF86Config /etc/X11/xorg.conf

and reboot.

Thanks to all that helped me on this!

-T
