This thread exactly describes what is going on.  I have the same problem
he does:

He is running a Debian system.  I can't find the Fedora equivalent of
eselect.

Is it me or does it sound like I must download the source for the nvidia
driver and recompile it myself ?  Just like I used to, before the days
of livna/ RPMfusion.  Yuck.
