Ed's solution,
removing the old driver (dnf erase *nvidia*), then
installing the correct driver (dnf install akmod-nvidia-470xx)
worked.
The problem arose when my weekly patches updated the working driver
with a newer one that does not support my NVIDIA Corporation GK106
[GeForce GTX 660] graphics card.
I thank Ed for his time and effort on this issue.
I've marked this thread "SOLVED".
Yes, but the biggest problem for an isolated user will be getting from a
black boot screen to the starting point. Quoting from Ed:
You can boot and when the kernel selection comes up type "e" and then
add "3" to to linux line and the "control-X"
Or, boot normally and use "control-Alt-F3" to get to a terminal. This
may or may not work for you.
Use lspci and find the line the line for nvidia or use "lspci | grep -i
nvidia"
Thank-you John. I agree.
The omissions were not intentional.
