installing nvidia x86 185.18.14

Will it took me some time how to upgrade my kernel form i586 to i686. I been having truble installing my nvidia driver. And my last bet is to install it manually form the website it self. Sine fedora dose thing so differently. There just a few thing I want to know..

How to get runlevel 3 to run? ( Temp )

How to kill or stop my X or gdm? And to be able to do this when running runlevel3! ( Temp )

After I get done installing. How do I get my X or gdm start back up again? And back to runlevel5 again?
