If you're using kmod, that means you've been using the rpmfusion nvidia
binary driver, right? But it looks like the kernel is trying to use the
nouveau open source driver. They're incompatible.
Maybe you need to set up to use the nvidia binary blob again. I think
this involves blacklisting nouveau and installing the nvidia driver for
your kernel. There should be instructions you can find online, or in
the archives of this list, for how to do this.
