Sounds like something broke during the upgrade.
Well, it didn't upgrade, I had to uninstall and reinstall the kmod-nvidia and dependent packages. I have removed and resintalled them several times. Even going to the src.rpms, compiling, and installing those. So I don't think it is something left over from the old packages. It seems to be an issue with this package. It could be an issue at nVidia's end, though I didn't notice anything similar on the nVidia Linux forum. Whatever the problem, it would at least be nice to get back the old driver till this is sorted out, since I know that works... Jonathan
