Let's make things clear. Are you trying to build an RPM with the latest nvidia drivers
or are you just trying to install nvidia drivers provided by their website?
If the latter is the case I would recommend troubleshooting at
http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/forumdisplay.php?f=14
If the former is the case new RPM's will be provided by rpmfusion very soon. Just wait
a little. OR use the nvidia's installer if it is that urgent.
Other than that, after issuing "system-config-display --reconfig" re-installing
the nvidia driver will probably solve the issue. I would also recommend un-installing
livna-config-display if you are not using kmod rpm's.

Thanks for help, but when i run the utility to create the
default
xorg.conf and restart the machine y cannot get X interface.

The X-server will determine the parameters by itself. But if
there *is* a xorg.conf file X-server will use it. Since the
proprietary nvidia drivers need a xorg.conf file in most
scenarios, I think a generic one needs to be built via
"system-config-display --reconfig", possibly in
%post.
