Installed the nVidia driver from Freshrpms on F7, along with the dkms package.
When I rebooted, I got a bunch of nVidia denied messages. Someone had
mentioned in another thread going to the nVidia forum and getting some
suggestions about dealing with selinux; I found the following page and tried
some of the suggestions - some of the commands pointed to files that didn't
exist: http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=72490
Those didn't help.
I turned selinux off, uninstalled the nVidia driver, and reinstalled it. Now
it appears to be working well with glxgears giving me nearly 3000 FPS.
Can anyone suggest how to get selinux and the nVidia driver to play nice?
The problem -- at least with the Livna RPMs -- is that device files were
installed into /etc/udev/devices, which has been deprecated. The latest version
of the Livna RPM makes SELinux happy by creating the device files through
/etc/udev/makedev.d per Harald Hoyer's comment at:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=241712#c15
and see

Based on your description, I would guess that the driver from freshrpms has the
same defect.
