Look closely, he said he downloaded the "tar" files from the nvidia
webpage. They are not, I repeat, not rpm's. They need to be uncompressed
and then compiled. This insures that you can use them on any distribution,
although I could not get them to compile on LM8 RC1, maybe after I install
the final release they will work.
