The nvidia kernel modules are version specific. When you update your 
kernel, you also need to update the nvidia modules to match the kernel. 
If you're getting your nvidia drivers as rpm packages from e.g. livna, 
you need to get the new matching modules from there as well. If you're 
using the "build it yourself" package from the nVidia web site, just run 
the installer again and it will build and install the new modules for 
you using the new kernel.
