Actually, the exclude was needed when the akmod-nvidia-340xx package

I just removed the exclude from my configuration which confirms the
package was moved to stable.
And a check on a system without nvidia hardware.....
[root@f35k ~]# dnf list available | grep akmod-nvidia-340xx
akmod-nvidia-340xx.x86_64 1:340.108-15.fc35 rpmfusion-nonfree-updates
Which is the "fixed" version for the newer kernels.
Guess I am misunderstanding 'exclude.' Without it here, what's to
prevent future updates from installing the >340xx versions that don't
support my card, and that I just de-installed? Thanks.
According to the nVidia 'Advanced driver search', the GT730 is supported
by the driver series from 390 to 470. I have the GT710 in F34 with 470.

Instructions from Rpmfusion are copied below. If, as shown, you specify
470xx, that should stick.
{{{
Legacy GeForce 600/700
Supported on current stable Xorg server release.
/!\ This serie is the current default for fedora releases up to Fedora 34.
This driver is suitable for any NVIDIA Kepler GPU found between 2012 and
2014
dnf update -y
sudo dnf install xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-470xx akmod-nvidia-470xx
sudo dnf install xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-470xx-cuda #optional for cuda up to
11.4 support
/!\ Please remember to wait after the RPM transaction ends, until the
kmod get built. This can take up to 5 minutes on some systems.

and then 'sudo systemctl reboot'
