I have the same proble with rpm-4 too.The problem is all
the symbols are missing. Try 'modinfo -p NVdriver'.
The GLX package has problems too, libGLcore.so.1.0.4,
libglx.so.1.0.4 and nvidia_drv.o also have this problem.

If you use the tarball's from NVIDIA it installs fine,
or copy the file from /usr/src/redhat/BUILD/NVIDIA_*
to the correct place it'll work.
