I made that same switch.  When I did, I had some trouble I still don't 
completely understand, but at the end a complete uninstall and re-install so 
that the following file in place seemed to solve my problems:

/etc/ld.so.conf.d/nvidia-lib64.conf

It seems to me that you might check the output of ldconfig -v and make sure 
that the nvidia (GL for example) libraries appear before the openGL libraries 
in .../lib64.

Yes I think it was crashing when trying to use OpenGL, I did a couple of things which seem to fix it but not sure what exactly fixed it.

1. I un-installed them I tried to go back to atrpms but was missing a kmdl so ended up re-installing rpm fusion again

2. installed latest Kernel
3. some process has cleared out my xorg.conf

after those two actions I seem be back to normal.. phew.. nearly was without TV playback minus WAF could have been ugly..

But I see the Nvidia HOWTO needs some updating to explain the akmod process when kernel version changes, and some of the commands didn't work..

but I think its all good now..

Interestingly I'm running at a higher resolution now (1920 x 1080) where before I think I was running 720p so I don't know which is best..
