It would be more convenient if you could try not to just blindly follow
my instructions, but rather try to understand what is going on. After
you did the "yum install kmod-nvidia", what did it reply? Was it
successfully installed (it should say "Complete!" when it finishes) or
not?

By the way, I think that the installation was unsuccessful because your
graphics card requires the "304xx" driver instead of the latest
"331xx" (there is also the "173xx" driver for the oldest lineage of
nvidia cards).

So I suggest you try the following:

(1) log in as root

(2) look into the output of

  yum repolist

and make sure that rpmfusion free and rpmfusion nonfree are listed
there. If they are not, we need to fix that before proceeding further.
What does it say?

(3) if everything was ok in step (2), do all of these, in order:

  yum remove kmod-nvidia
  yum remove xorg-x11-drv-nvidia
  yum install kmod-nvidia-304xx

and answer with a yes when each time it asks you to confirm. After it
finishes report back here what did it tell you? Did the installation
succeed or fail? Did it report any errors?

(4) if step (3) succeeded, do a

   shutdown -r now

and verify that graphical interface works after the reboot. If it still
doesn't work, send me the latest /var/log/Xorg.0.log again to see.

(5) finally, if step (3) did not succeed tell me what the error message
was.

HTH, :-)
