Try the rpms at
http://atrpms.physik.fu-berlin.de/name/nvidia-graphics/
It contains 4363, 4496, 4620, 5328 and 5336 drivers built for several
kernels (including the updates/testing ones, PlanetCCRMA's and of
course ATrpms').
I have also an GeForce FX 5200 and found the 4620 to be the most
suitable for me (note: out of all the drivers it is the one labeled
beta). Depending on your focus (fast GL vs XV/XVMC/overscan/vsync
video features) other drivers will be more suitable.
You can install all of them and switch with nvidia-graphics-switch
from driver to driver (after exiting X and rmmoding the previous
kmdl of course, but you don't need to (un)install rpms to switch the
drivers).
