Some people seem to report that 5336 works with FC2 - But they are just lucky 
and possible their driver is unstable (when I did this all *seemed* OK but 
when I tried to push opengl the system crashed). In the end I followed the 
instructions on this page

http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showpost.php?p=326605&postcount=7

to install a fresh kernel without the 4kstack issue. The instructions are 
simple to follow (although the kernel is at  
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/linux-2.6.6.tar.bz2 instead of 
the address in the page).

This worked a dream for me.
