Paul, 
 I am currently running FC5 on a Dell D820 with the 2.6.17-1.2174
kernel.

My boot line from grub:
 kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.17-1.2174_FC5smp ro root=/dev/bikinibottom/root
vga=0x31a quiet hdc=noprobe

I'm using the nvidia drivers from atrpms.

Works in my office.  

[bpm]$ uname -a
Linux dufus 2.6.17-1.2174_FC5smp #1 SMP Tue Aug 8 16:00:39 EDT 2006 i686
i686 i386 GNU/Linux


But I think the real problem is that you are in Kansas.  Now if you were
in St. Louis, well it just might work :-)
