Does Fedors use grub? I have never used Fedora, if so just boot into runlevel 3. Just add a 3 to the end of the line in grub. To do so, press E, then select what you want to boot and press E again and add a 3 at the end and then hit B. There could be a graphical menu in Grub too, I'm not sure.
fedora 14 nvidia drivers

fedora is nice about having USEFUL run levels unlike stuff from other people like debian where they keep runlevels 2-5 EXACTLY THE SAME -.-
runlevel 3 is a multi-user command line, so "telinit 3" or "init 3" (telinit is just a symlink to init)

just make sure you are in a root terminal or it wont let ya do it

It's for Linux, actually. All of the distros don't have completely unique terminal commands. That kind of defeats the purpose.

Anyway, install the drivers from RPM Fusion and then the 64-bit CUDA Toolkit from nvidia.com.

eh... ive always liked just installing the drivers myself after getting them from nvidia... drivers from package managers can be out of date and such :/ its easier just to not even fuss with it

Maybe, but if you install them manually, then they go out of date if you forget to go download the updates whenever they come out. Which happens a lot.
