You should get into the habit of making notes as you go along, it makes 
a rebuild so much easier and you can delete/add stuff as you find it 
works or doesn't

Stephens myth packages are amazing, but do yourself a favour and move to 
the elrepo nvidia-kmod

No more matching a kmdl to a specific kernel, no more waiting for 
someone else to build it every time you upgrade etc.
