Default Fedora 6 randomly boots into text-mode or GUI login

After installing Nvidia's proprietrary driver,
booting Fedora 6 now hits and stays at the text-mode screen (console
1).
gdm does start in console 7 (and beeps for whatever reason).
Every once in a while, Fedora correctly switches to gdm.
This is a weird timing problem interacting between X, initscripts, and
Nvidia's driver (??).

Please email if there's a fix.
