Currently running the newly-installed 2.6.24.3-34 kernel.

This is the stdout/stderr when I startx:

It seems to me that you have the wrong module.

Try this:

rpm -q --qf "%{name}-%{version} : %{arch}\n" kernel

rpm -q --qf "%{name}-%{version} : %{arch}\n" nvidia-graphics169.12-kmdl-2.6.24.3-34.fc8
