I don't think mythfrontend uses a particular Nvidia driver. My guess
is that your Nvidia client software is the wrong version.

Here's an example from my TV-out mythtv client (I use the Livna RPMs):

kmod-nvidia-96xx-1.0.9631-7.2.6.20_1.2952.fc6
xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-96xx-1.0.9631-7.lvn6

Note that the xorg driver and the kernel module have the same number
(9631). I'm guessing that your xorg driver is the wrong version (9746,
which doesn't match the "9755" of the kernel module).

I'm curious - did you install the ATrpms Nvidia RPMs?  I love their
mythtv rpms, but have found the Livna RPMs upgrade with far less
effort on my part.
