Running F22/KDE with GeForce GTX 660 and the nVidia drivers from RPMfusion (akmod).

The problem I see when updating kernels via dnf.  dnf has the RPM database locked so the rpm's can't be installed during the update.  Supposedly, that should be taken care of during the reboot but it hasn't worked for me.  So, I just manually do it as suggested in the akmods.log prior to reboot.
