You're not using RPMfusion.  The method you're using requires a bit more skill 
and
understanding than using the fully automated method provided by RPMfusion.  
There are less
issues when a kernel is updated.

I would undo what you did first and restore the default nouveau drivers.

Then I would go to https://rpmfusion.org/ and install their repositories.

After that I'd installed "akmod-nvidia" which will pull in several other 
packages.  It
will then automatically build the proper kmod for the kernel, install it, and 
disable
nouveau.  Subsequently, when a new kernel is installed it will do the same.

The key to happiness however is to be patient.  The building of the kmods 
happens in the
background and the "mistake" some then make is rebooting before the work is 
done.  Now,
that isn't a killer since on reboot the "akmod" process knows the kmod doesn't 
exist and
will rebuild it.  But, again, it will do is silently and you'll have a blinking 
cursor and
think your system is screwed. 

When installing for the firs time, check /var/cache/akmods/akmods.log for 
something
similar to...

2016/12/17 13:43:02 akmods: Checking kmods exist for 4.8.14-300.fc25.x86_64
2016/12/17 13:43:02 akmods: Building and installing nvidia-kmod
2016/12/17 13:43:02 akmods: Building RPM using the command '/sbin/akmodsbuild 
--target
x86_64 --kernels 4.8.14-300.fc25.x86_64 /usr/src/akmods/nvidia-kmod.latest'
2016/12/17 13:44:44 akmods: Installing newly built rpms
2016/12/17 13:44:45 akmods: DNF detected
2016/12/17 13:45:14 akmods: Successful.

Once you see "Successful" it is OK to reboot.
