NVIDIA suggests that kernel-source is indeed used.
Here is the error directly from the nvidia installer:
ERROR: Unable to load the kernel module 'nvidia.ko'. This is most likely because the kernel module was built using the wrong kernel source files. Please make sure you have installed the kernel source files for your kernel; on Red Hat Linux systems, for example, be sure you have the 'kernel-source' rpm installed. If you know the correct kernel source files are installed, you may specify the kernel source path with the '--kernel-source-path' commandline option ==============================================================================
--kernel-source-path should be /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build always... Their instructions seem to still be based on 2.4 kernel rpms not on the FC2 2.6 kernel rpms...
What is the kernel-sourcecode package used for?
for building your own custom kernel if you want a different .config file than we use..
