I wouldn't know as I always install everything from packages, and that's
what Mark is doing as well. For me, I use rpmfusion as the repo and they
maintain Nvidia driver packages. I don't know exactly why this happens, but
I have seen cases where updating a kernel and installing the new driver
with a normal "dnf update" puts the Nvidia stuff in a screwed-up state
where GNOME won't work. The way I have fixed it is just "dnf remove
*nvidia*" and then reinstall the nvidia packages I need from scratch.
