Hi,

First of all login as root and remove/uninstall the nvidia driver.
Then at the Konsole/Gnome Terminal type "set selinux 0" (without
quotes) and then install the nvidia driver and make any changes you
want to do. Then tell me the results. You can also type "set seenforce
0" or "echo 0 > /selinux/enforce"(without quotes) and try again.

I hope it will help.
