Now that he's up, which was my highest priority, I'm back to looking

* elrepo: mirror.symnds.com
so this was what the mirrorlist came up with. That there's something
screwy there.
So I just pointed my browser there, and found elrepo there under
distributions/elrepo. Anyone got any ideas why it finds that it's there,
but yum doesn't see the actual repo (and yes, the kmod-nvidia packages are
there)?

Here's what the same operation looks like on my box:
[jleafey@megamind ~]$ sudo yum list \*nvidia\*

Just a thought, have you tried flushing yum's metadata? I have run
across a couple of instances where yum seems to get a bit... retentive
and won't retrieve new metadata for one or more repositories. I usually
run "yum clean metadata" or "yum clean all", then re-try the operation.
Unless it is something *I* have boogered badly it usually works.
Of course, YMMV!
