https://java.net/projects/solaris-x11/pages/NvidiaInstallation is the
suggested method for removing the IPS packages and installing the
downloaded ones - if you don't remove the IPS packages first, then
pkg update or fix could splatter the IPS packaged bits back on top of
the SVR4 ones you installed.

It would be useful to have them preinstalled side by side, but naming conflicts 
are an issue:
- I would have to rename kernel drivers and conf files

Right, the way nvidia has implemented the drivers, you can only have
one version installed at a time.
