Dennis,
Sorry, looking back through this thread to 9/30 I realized I wasn't 
telling you anything new and you were looking to Axel for an answer. 
Well the answer is in the script.  When yum was given the install 
nvidia-graphics9755 command it went to Axel and said "What have you got 
that matches this?"  Axel said "I've got a like new 9755-87".  Yum said 
"Great. I'll take it."  When yum started to unwrap his new 9755-87 he 
began to discover that it needed some dependencies, and the dependencies 
needed other dependencies and on and on.  The reason was that 9755-87 
was built for the 2.6.22 kernel and what was really needed (but not 
specified by the script) was 9755-86.  Unfortunately, that silly little 
script error that keeps showing up in the install.log is now about to 
eat our lunch.
Chris
