No.
There are 3 nvidia drivers available - the current version plus two
legacy drivers for use with older hardware.
By doing:
yum install kmod-nvidia*
you are trying to install all of them rather than the specific driver
you want.
Please see here for more info:
http://elrepo.org/tiki/kmod-nvidia
http://elrepo.org/tiki/kmod-nvidia-96xx
http://elrepo.org/tiki/kmod-nvidia-173xx
Assuming you want the current driver and not one of the old legacy
drivers, you should instead do:
yum install kmod-nvidia
which will pull in the dependencies it needs.
Then you will need to reboot your system.
