Is it necessary to enable the ccrma testing repository in order to install the kmod. When the repo is enabled, can I install it from Add/Remove software, or do I need to get it from the website?

> Hello , I wanted to post that I have managed to get the nvidia developer driver driver 260.24 working with the 2.6.33.6-147.2.4.rt28.1.fc13.ccrma.x86_64.rtkernel. I do get the warnings from abrt tool but that is nothing new. I just wanted to let everyone that in case you are reluctant to try it. If you need assistance, I will be happy to point you in the right direction.
