Updated packages (nvidia-detect-346.35-2) are currently syncing to the
mirrors and should be available shortly from the elrepo testing repository:

yum --enablerepo=elrepo-testing update nvidia-detect

I'd appreciate if folks could test and confirm they work as expected. On
my el5 desktop system:

$ rpm -q nvidia-detect
nvidia-detect-346.35-2.el5.elrepo.x86_64

$ nvidia-detect
kmod-nvidia-304xx

$ nvidia-detect --verbose
Probing for supported NVIDIA devices...
[10de:0392] NVIDIA Corporation G73 [GeForce 7600 GS]
This device requires the legacy 304.xx NVIDIA driver kmod-nvidia-304xx

Thanks,

Phil
