This problem is actually solved in a much more convenient way in the CentOS community. There, one can just yum -y install nvidia-detect && nvidia-detect and find out which driver one is supposed to install. This is much more streamlined than manually looking up PCI ID's in Xorg.0.log, then looking up the instructions at the rpmfusion page, then figuring out which driver the user has to install. A typical novice user should not be expected to decypher PCI ID's in a log file. An experienced user who offers his time and advice for free on a a mailing list should not be expected to do so either. If it were up to me, I'd make a meta-package named "kmod-nvidia" which would execute the nvidia-detect script, pick up the answer automatically and then install appropriate kmod-nvidia-331xx/304xx/173xx driver as a conditional dependency. Then all of these issues would simply go away. But alas, it is not up to me...
