I had the same problem in FC2. I fixed it by downloading the nvidia kernel module, using the wonderful apt-get.

apt-cudf-get
APT-CUDF-GET(8) DOSE Tools APT-CUDF-GET(8)
NAME
apt-cudf-get - wrapper for calling apt-get with external solvers
SYNOPSIS
apt-cudf-get [arguments]
DESCRIPTION
apt-cudf-get is a wrapper that allows to invoke apt-get with external solvers while ignoring apt's pinning.
All options are passed on to apt-get.
Normally, apt uses so-called pinning to select a candidate version of a package in case there are several versions available. This also
holds when calling apt-get with external solvers. However, when it is not possible to find a solution under this constraint, it may be
useful to relax pinning and to allow the external solver to choose among all available versions of packages in order to satisfy
dependencies, not only those that are selected by the pinning. This is precisely what apt-cudf-get does.
Note that, when using an external solver, the proposed solution may contain any available version of the packages that are given as
arguments to install on the command line without specifying a version qualifier.
For example
apt-cudf-get --solver aspcud install ocaml
may propose to install any available version of ocaml, while
apt-cudf-get --solver aspcud install ocaml=4.01.0
will only propose to install ocaml in version 4.01.0
AUTHOR
Pietro Abate and Roberto Di Cosmo
BUGS
Not all types of arguements to apt are correctly treated by this wrapper, in particular not the +pkg and -pkg shorthands for installation
and removal requests.
