My broken nvidia card was a 6200TC which uses g02 btw but I could never get the same quality from the nv rpms and always used the run package. I installed the 190.53 package around Feb 6. I'm going to try deleting all of those libs manually and then repeat the install/uninstall of the nvidia drivers then Mesa/xorg-x11-server reinstall.

Apparently you've still installed the files from various NVIDIA RPMs (although I explained how to get rid of them). Also you might have installed various versions of the official NVIDIA installer, which would be fatal, since I don't know how to get rid of these files any longer when nvidia-uninstall is gone. I'm afraid your system is such a messup now, that you can only reinstall your system. I'm wondering why we still provide these NVIDIA RPMs. It's a lot of work and I don't see any benefit, since apparently nobody is using them anyway.

Ah, but you're not providing the latest and greatest fast enough ;-P Seriously though, some people just don't think about the consequences of using the official non-rpm package from NVIDIA.

And some even mix that one with already installed NVIDIA RPMs. What happens is that this installer moves the existing files of the RPMs to some backup directory before installing his own X stack. Guess what happens if you then uninstall the RPMs and afterwards run nvidia-uninstall. The files of the RPMs are restored but no longer belong to any package. This is what exactly happened in this case. Therefore I suggested to reinstall the RPMs and unistall them immediately again.

Of cause you do! That's what the tongue-in-cheek was for :) I simply guessed at the reason why people do it. I use the NVIDIA packages, but that is because I run on bleeding edge factory and that seems to require having to build a matching nvidia module now and then.
