RPMFusion doesn't provide packages for the 96.43 series of legacy
drivers (which is what the attached build log says Dave is using). It
does provide the latest (180) and previous legacy (173) series of
Drivers.

Luckily Axel Thrimm still builds this series of drivers for F10 - so
the correct answer is:

Do this:
http://www.atrpms.net/install.html

Followed by this:
yum -y install nvidia-graphics96.43.11-*
