For me this loses the simplicity of:

# yum install $(nvidia-detect)

at which point we may as well stick with the original proposal of yum
install $(nvidia-detect -t).

Presently we could do an even less elegant:

# yum install $(nvidia-detect | grep kmod-nvidia | awk '{ print $9 }')

but I'd like to try to keep it as simple as possible so users have less
chance of getting it wrong whilst still providing the functionality
sysadmins want :-)
