As I said, I was guessing, largely because most people who > haven't run across the fedoraforum aren't aware of the kmod/akmod method. FWIW, the kmod and akmod method is not always the end all/be all for installing the nVidia drivers (I say this primarily when using the rawhide kernels). There aren't kmods to use against the debug versions of the kernels and the akmod's won't compile against the debug versions of the kernel source (it appears due to the nVidia license saying "NVIDIA" instead of "GPL"). I think the rpmfusion nVidia driver packages are great most of the time, but there are shortcomings sometimes.
