Hi:  I don't know what kernel and what nvidia driver you want, but there 
seems to be a huge variety there at present - unlike the Fedora builds, 
where most packages are still awaiting Axel's reauthorisation 
formalities and/or his immediate attention.  I'm looking here:

And there have also been recent posts about building you own using a 
.src.rpm with a running kernel for which kmdls don't yet exist.  May be 
a little scary if you usually boot to an active graphics screen, of course!
