Hi Peter, and thanks for your nvidia RPMs :)

The RPM I installed was one of yours ... but I did a version jump from
fdr.3 to fdr.8. Like I said, no problem, nothing I can't handle.

I see the permissions still aren't being set properly on /dev/nv* (not
here anyway - for some reason). I still have to do a chmod 0666 /dev/nv*
otherwise I get permission denied errors running OGL apps as a non-root
user. Once again, nothing I can't handle.

FYI: I've commented out the "<dri>=/dev/nv*" line in
/etc/security/console.perms and uninstalled XFree86-Mesa-libGL.
