Follow the guide (step 1 should have installed it)

Code:
yum install rpmdevtools

Re: Nvidia guide for F13 Development.
Got as far as step 4 and I get

Building target platforms: x86_64

Oh I see you are meant to do step 3 4 as non root.

However I am now getting this

You should be installing the newly built rpms found in ~/rpmbuild/RPMS/x86_64.

Try
Code:
su
rm -f /home/*/rpmbuild/RPMS/x86_64/*nvidia*de*rpm
yum install --nogpgcheck /home/*/rpmbuild/RPMS/x86_64/*nvidia*rpm

 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
 You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

Try


Code:
wget http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/development/source/SRPMS/VirtualBox-OSE-kmod-3.1.2-1.fc13.src.rpm
rpmbuild --rebuild VirtualBox-OSE-kmod-3.1.2-1.fc13.src.rpm --define "kernels $(uname -r)"  --target $(uname -m)
Then include the kmod in the transaction

Re: Nvidia guide for F13 Development.
ok, so I downloaded

VirtualBox-OSE-kmodsrc-3.1.2-1.fc12.x86_64.rpm
akmod-VirtualBox-OSE-3.1.4-1.fc13.x86_64.rpm
kmod-VirtualBox-OSE-3.1.4-1.fc13.x86_64.rpm

built

VirtualBox-OSE-kmod-3.1.2-1.fc13.src.rpm
(guess I could have donwloaded the f12 rpm, too)

then installed with
Code:
# yum --nogpgcheck install *.rpm
worked fine here. hope I didn't forget anything...

Re: Nvidia guide for F13 Development.
Just noticed that you have to rebuild again with any new kernel update.

You only have to build the kmod package.



i.e after today's kernel update I ran this


Code:
rpmbuild --rebuild  /home/leigh/rpmbuild/SRPMS/nvidia-kmod-195.36.15-1.fc13.src.rpm --define  "kernels 2.6.33.2-41.fc13.x86_64"  --target $(uname -m)
Then installed the new kmod with rpm -ivh
