I already have all that and normally it works, but for the past few

 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem   

 
 You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

Interesting point.  My (x86_64) home server is still on F19 and using
the 340 driver.  My (i686) test system is on F21 and running the 304
driver without incident.

Go to http://www.fedoraforum.org/?view=fedora_setup and find a number of 
setup guides and automated scripts for adding all of the things that 
Fedora can't directly give you, including both manual and automated ways

I have the same problem under F21, I've upgraded to that kernel and 
there is no corresponding kmod-nvidia driver as yet. I also have the 
akmod-nvidia packages installed but found that the source process does 
not work properly in F21 on my system, as akmods is enabled for starting 
at boot time but it is not compiling the driver as it is supposed to, so 
I have had to run it manually to get a binary driver. You may want to 
have a look at the akmod-nvidia packages from rpmfusion as a means of 
getting a driver if there isn't an already compile driver for you 
installed kernel available.

Same problem here, what version of nvidia drivers are you using?  I'm
using the 340.65-4 version here, which I originally got from RPMFusion.
 Apparently, nether they nor the kmods are any longer available from
rpmfusion, with the 304.123 version (which Ed is using) being listed as
the latest version.

At one point I was offered a 340.65-5 driver from rpmfusion, but it
appears to no longer be available.
