I've been a bit busy over Christmas and I think there may be a problem 
with the new nvidia kmdls ( missing a symbolic link). You can downgrade 
to .169 version which will clear the problem. I'll have a look and fix 
the problem tonight if you can wait that long.

yum downgrade nvidia-graphics340.65-kmdl

which should take you back to version 169 from 170.

You will probably have to add nvidia-graphics340.165-libs and 
nvidia-graphics340.165 to the downgrade process.

I'll post a 171 version to fix the problem in a few hours.

Cheers
Stephen

            I have now built nvidia-graphics-long-lived and
            nvidia-graphics-short-lived wrappers. These are the
            preferred nvidia drivers as they will prevent getting
            stranded a release that is not built for new kernels.<br>
            <br>
            All are built automatically when a kernel change occurs.<br>
            Mythtv builds are built automatically on git changes<br>
            <br>
            Please use the repo rpm that is here as they now use mirrors<br>

            f21 x86_64 currently has a build problem with mock. This is
            a fedora problem with generic-release and should fix itself
            once fedora 21 goes to release.<br>

    I've been a bit busy over Christmas and I think there may be a
    problem with the new nvidia kmdls ( missing a symbolic link). You
    can downgrade to .169 version which will clear the problem. I'll
    have a look and fix the problem tonight if you can wait that long.<br>
    <br>
    yum downgrade nvidia-graphics340.65-kmdl<br>
    <br>
    which should take you back to version 169 from 170.<br>
    <br>
    You will probably have to add nvidia-graphics340.165-libs and
    nvidia-graphics340.165 to the downgrade process.<br>
    <br>
    I'll post a 171 version to fix the problem in a few hours.<br>
    <br>
    Cheers<br>
