You probably have installed the nvidia driver from the installer and
not from rpms.

This is a general issue with packaged vs non-packaged bits on your
system: non-packaged software is invisible to the package manager.

I suggest to uninstall the nvidia driver and use the rpms at
http://ATrpms.net/name/nvidia-graphics/
