[elrepo-devel] nvidia-x11-drv additions

[rshaw1 at umbc.edu]

In my work environment, several groups find it necessary to have the
OpenGL headers (gl.h, glext.h, etc.) installed along with the nvidia
drivers.  In addition to this, the attached patch adds symlinks and
ld.so.conf.d file entries for the (already installed) tls library files.

I have just been patching this on-site for a while now, but others may
find it useful (and I certainly would not mind no longer having to patch
it myself).  At worst, I don't believe including these changes should
cause problems for anyone.

The attached patch is for the RHEL6 version of the nvidia-x11-drv.spec
file from nvidia-x11-drv-331.49-1.el6.elrepo.nosrc.rpm; if it is agreed
that this should become part of the ELRepo-distributed version, I'll
create and submit a patch for the RHEL5 version as well.  I've built and
tested 64-bit RPMs using the patched spec file (I have no good way to test
32-bit RPMs, unfortunately).

Feel free, of course, to change as appropriate (I increased the RPM
version to 2; not sure if that's the right thing, but if so, the kernel
spec file's RPM version would have to increase as well.  Maybe just save
it for the next nvidia version?)

Thanks,
