Has this happened to anyone (Nvidia Drivers w/New Kernel)

I just downloaded the infamous "we'll give it to you, but we can't tell you why" Redhat kernel update. I installed it as usual, and as usual it clobbered the binary Nvidia kernel drivers. I ran NVchooser.sh and the script recommended I update using the source code. The compile is not a configure/make/make install affair, but a silent "make all". The compile fails almost immediately and silently!

Has anyonelse experienced this problemo?

Moreover, the Source RPM is not well built enough to tell me which of the Redhat devel packages I might need to install to have the necessary headers (RTFM? The one noted in the manual isn't on my 7.3 CD, nor on RPMfind, nor on RHN). I'm more in the dark than usual on this one.

Ah well! Back to vacuuming carpet mites while a single frame of Tribute renders in software mode. One frame every 5 seconds anyone? *chuckles* I feel like I'm running a Voodoo again.

Qvacks.
