Have you built nvidia libs first? Changed the permissions of /var/lib?

>From the previous link:

 "The second line above builds nvidia libs, and the third, the kernel
module. The more recent versions of the nvidia .src.rpm obliges building the
libs first, so a file */var/lib/nvidia/log* is created. It is also necessary
to set the permission of */var/lib* to 777, at least the first time, if the
package is not built as root."
