last couple of days, and there is a gotcha with the RPM Fusion Nvidia
drivers.
That is, if nouveua is loaded, the nvidia driver won't work. So, I
would say, dump one or the other. Either remove kmod-nvidia, or
blacklist nouveau, as shown on this page:
http://fedorasolved.org/video-solutions/nvidia-yum-kmod/
(one caveat about this page)*
If you look at dmesg, and see a bunch of nvidia related errors, try
blacklisting nouveau.
