new nvidia driver for 3.7.7 kernel has just arrived, problem solved.
It would be nice to automatically prevent kernel updates when nvidia
driver cannot be updated.
That is why you should be using akmod-nvidia from rpmfusion instead of kmod-nvidia.  The binaries will be rebuilt automatically and you won't have this situation.

Not true in this case. There is a bug in the nvidia installer script that causes the installation to fail when it can't determine the kernel version. Akmod-nvidia produces a failure log, which identified the issue and allowed the rpmfusion maintainers to write a patch.
