CentOS - May 2014 - nvidia-related messages in /var/log/messages

Just discovered these messages in /var/log/messages, while looking at
the USB problem I just posted about, separately.

Apr 27 20:23:16 fcshome kernel: NVRM: API mismatch: the client has the version
331.67, but
Apr 27 20:23:16 fcshome kernel: NVRM: this kernel module has the version 331.49.
Please
Apr 27 20:23:16 fcshome kernel: NVRM: make sure that this kernel module and all
NVIDIA driver
Apr 27 20:23:16 fcshome kernel: NVRM: components have the same version.
Apr 27 20:23:16 fcshome kernel: NVRM: nvidia_frontend_ioctl: minor 255,
module->ioctl failed, error -22
Apr 29 19:22:30 fcshome kernel: NVRM: API mismatch: the client has the version
331.67, but
Apr 29 19:22:30 fcshome kernel: NVRM: this kernel module has the version 331.49.
Please
Apr 29 19:22:30 fcshome kernel: NVRM: make sure that this kernel module and all
NVIDIA driver

but I cannot find anything relating to Nvidia that has a 331.49 version number.
"yum list installed | grep 331.49" returns no hits
"yum list installed | grep 331.[0-9]" returns ONLY hits on 331.67.
"find 331" finds lots of things, but none of them is 331.49.

So, I'd be appreciative if someone could shine a light on this for me.

thanks!

You updated the NVIDIA driver/kernel module  while the old one was
loaded into the kernel.

As root:
# telinit 3
# rmmod nvidia
