Lenard:
   thanks, this is simple and works fine but whoever wrote this forgot to
mention the enable/disable option. So hoping that this may be useful to
someone, here are the three steps, as root:
.
   a) Add file livna.repo into /etc/yum.repo.d (Allow YUM access to livna)
   b) yum install kernel-module-nvidia-$(uname -r)
   c) /usr/nvidia-config-display enable (Or disable!

There is no clear feedback, but when you restart the X server
(CTL-ATL-BackSPACE) then the NVIDIA screen shows up.

The the game BZFLAG runs a lot faster! (A good test).

There is command to know if 3D acceleration is enable, I forgot which one!
