Hi:  I've no Mac experience and currently run f16 but here are a few
comments.

The rpmfusion and atrpms packages are generally believed incompatible.
If you try one, remove all traces of the other - lib packages too.

I use ATrpms; the nvidia-graphics package should pull in
nvidia-graphics-helpers, nvidia-graphics302.17, a kmdl and a libs
package, and maybe nvidia-graphics-devices too.

I don't think the nomodeset kernel option has been needed for some time,
although it probably gets set automatically.

You may need to run, as root, /usr/sbin/nvidia-graphics-switch.

This may be needed too (from the f16 package description):

Add
 ModulePath "/usr/lib64/xorg/modules/extensions/nvidia"
 ModulePath "/usr/lib64/xorg/modules/extensions"
 ModulePath "/usr/lib64/xorg/modules"
to `Section "Files"' in the config file and remove/comment the dri module.
