Same problem with nvidia-x11-drv-96xx-1.0.9639-1.i386.rpm on my 32bit
system (antique GeForce2 MX/MX 400 card). I fetched the latest legacy
driver from nvidia.org (NVIDIA-Linux-x86-96.43.01-pkg1.run.bin) which
built and runs without any glitches.

I was going to do just that as a last resort. I really like the package
from freshrpms because it uses dkms so it auto rebuilds the driver with
kernel updates instead of hoping another repo has the driver ready the
same time the kernel releases.
Thanks,
