yes!
thanks.
i'd like to nvidia-256.35 packages which would be useful for most users
and would be a good test bed too. ie.:
- kmod-nvidia
- nvidia-x11-drv
and may be like in rpmfuision
- nvidia-settings
- nvidia-xconfig
this would a good practice for normal rpm and kmod rpms too. i
especially interesting to build kmod rpms for el6. in beta2 there is a
package kabi-yum-plugins by Jon Masters (even though i don't know why
it's not called yum-plugin-kabi) and i like to use it and test it too.

also would be useful to test the new redhat-rpm-config's kmodtool and
/usr/lib/rpm/redhat/macros's kernel_module_package macro since i
_really_ like to use one and only one system wide kmodtool for all el6
rpm (ie. not included in all kmod rpm).

we should have to help Jon to make it much better or even send patches
to them during the beta phase.
