Hi!
I know Fedora is not the ideal distribution for anyone needing a
proprietary graphics driver, but I would like your input on how
stable/unstable a system running the Nvidia driver from RPM Fusion
(with akmods) actually is?

Listening to the FAQ from the recent Fedora conference

it sounds outright inadvisable.
it is also bad idea from security/trustworthiness perspective
Being a Fedora user I would very much
prefer running my forensics tools on Fedora rather than on a Debian
based distribution.
you can make it work, but it's not something anybody will be jumping
around to make work above all else
I can only say that the OSS Radeon drivers are completely hassle free
from my experience.
