After doing a rpmbuild --rebuild NVIDIA_kernel-1.0-2960.src.rpm, I try to install it:
[root@localhost i386]$ rpm -ivh NVIDIA_kernel-1.0-2960.i386.rpm

Compiling from the source does the same thing.
The 2.4.18-11 kernel is actually something like 2.4.19-pre10-ac2, which ships with the (null) redhat beta. I imagine the 2.4.19 will be the basis for the next public offering from redhat and will be compiled with gcc 3.2 as well.
