Aha! 'akmods' was installed, but fails to run, reporting a
missing
dependency--'kernel-devel'!
Old story :-( See:
https://bugzilla.rpmfusion.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2569
So, every time the kernel is updated, the build of the nvidia module
fails (silently, as far as I can see).
There is perhaps a trace in the journal for akmods(a)KERNEL.service or
in the logs under /var/cache/akmods
Having installed that, akmods now happily builds the nvidia module
and
the system boots and uses it.
Good.
I have also validated the akmods-shutdown service that recompiles (if
needed) all the kmods for all the kernels at shutdown. I don't care to
loose a few minutes when rebooting since I do that only every two or 3
weeks after a full update.
