It didn't work.

$ lsmod | grep nouveau
<nothing>
yum install x
Now what do I do ?

I was running akmod,
I am using the rpmfusion packages.

which presumably builds an nvidia kernel module.
Do those modules get loaded automatically ?
 If so, how does one remove
an akmod build kernel module ?  Ie how does one do a 'make uninstall'
for an akmod module ?
Sounds as if your installion is somehow broken. What actually is broken is hard to tell.

Normally you can have the xorg-x11-drv-nouveau package and rpmfusion's nvidia drivers installed in parallel and switch between both drivers.

May-be you need to run system-config-display?
