Yes, but 304.88 is in nonfree-update-testing, so your test still sees it.

Right,
the correct command to check is :
repoquery --envra --releasever=17 \*nvidia\*
--disablerepo=rpmfusion-nonfree-updates-testing
when new kernel goes to updates stable we will have new nvidia on stable .
Anyway, I have installed it and all seems ok. xorg.conf remains as
it
was after my edit, so the nvidia modules are being loaded and it works,
at least for me.
It's probably not worth making changes to the 304.64 packages now, since
they will presumably soon disappear and this thread is in the archive.
I was just trying to make several simultaneous major changes to my
system and a broken graphics driver didn't help.
