xorg-x11-drv-nouveau is supplied by fedora, but I was told that the
kernel driver was more up to date, so I removed the fformer.
I have a late 2012 iMac with Nvidia that was using 470xx. I mostly use nouveau
with wayland, but do have
xorg-x11-drv-nouveau.
There were issues with 470xx failing to build in F40 with the akmods install from
rpmfusion, but now there is a testing version that does install. Some users have
success with the Nvidia installer. I have the rpmfusion-testing package installed
but haven't had time to test it. I don't think it supports Wayland.
