I did an apt-get install nvidia-glx-src but although startx apparently gets xserver up and running there is no visual on F7.
(Sorry - a bit lacking in helpful info there, there is a bundle of stuff on screen comes up on the console from which I typed startx but I don't now how to trap it in a file.)
Simple... get the nvidia-glx-src and nvidia-kernel-src compiled (providing that in mind that you have left the kernel source in /usr/src/linux since it will build against your kernel)
Then in XF86Config:
Add the line in Section "Module"
Load "glx"
And then:
In Section "Device" change:
Driver "nv"
to
Driver "nvidia"
Restart 'X' and you should be on your way.
