no, last one published on the 11th of this month.

Dude, can't help noticing you seldom seem to actually provide much useful information when asking for help. you cna't install something yet have said nothing about errors and such. you'd do yourself a world of good if you are a lot more forthcoming with relevant information, and not have to be continually chased for it.

Please try these

root# chkconfig yum-updatesd off
root# yum clean all
root# yum update

Then search kmod-nvidia again.

But there was no solution to this question.

And I accidentally have one. So why not to share with others?

Look here: RPM Fusion

Quote:
RPM Fusion is a merger of the following package repositories for Fedora and Red Hat Enterprise Linux :

* Dribble
* Freshrpms
* Livna
You don't want to use Livna by itself anymore.

Incidently, the nvidia kmod package (and all the nvidia packages, actually) seem to be currently missing for Fedora 10 x86_64.
