That depends on your kernel arch (i586, i686, x86_64, ...) and the type of
your nvidia card. Older cards need the older nvidia driver, e.g. 96.43.01,
new ones can use the 100.14.19.

For a new card with an i686 kernel:
yum install nvidia-graphics100.14.19-kmdl-2.6.23.12-52.fc7-100.14.19-92.fc7.i686

It is important not to install a i586 module on a i686 kernel or vice versa!
