I am trying to kick the nvidia custom binaries direct from nvidia on an
x86-64 SL4.5 system.  When I try to yum install kernel-module-nvidia I get:

 yum --enablerepo=sl-contrib install kernel-module-nvidia
Loading "kernel-module" plugin

Error: Missing Dependency: nvidia-glx = 0:1.0.7676 is needed by package
kernel-module-nvidia-2.6.9-67.EL
Error: Missing Dependency: /usr/sbin/nvidia-config-display is needed by
package kernel-module-nvidia-2.6.9-67.EL

This does not depend on enabling the sl-contrib repo (i.e. same result
without the --enablerepo...).  How does one resolve these dependencies?
 Dag has one but not the other.  CERN has one but not the other.  No
combination appears to work.  Should the rest of the nvidia stuff be
somewhere in SL4.5?  Is there a proprietary piece I need to get?

Thanks in advance for any help,
Bob Blair
