The nvidia driver can be obtained in two different ways. One way is to download the appropriate .run file from nVidia website and run it. This is the*wrong* way, since it doesn't play nice with Fedora, overwrites some system files, and is a pain to remove once installed. The other way is to install (via yum) the package called akmod-nvidia, which is provided by the rpmfusion repository.
Third way: install kmod-nvidia, from the same repo. This has the advantage that it's pre-built and needs no development packages or other baggage and the disadvantage that it sometimes lags behind the new kernel by a day or so, in which case you simply don't reboot into the new kernel until it does.
