Hi,
after i followed the tutorial from
http://www.if-not-true-then-false.com/2014/fedora-20-nvidia-guide/
about installing nVidia driver for my ASUS G73SW laptop (with a
GTX460M nvidia card), i'm getting blocked at boot time of fedora 20.
i used this configuration (without nvidia driver) for 2 weeks without
any problem.
May be you missed my reply to you, which was in another thread you had
started. If the GPU supports Optimus then it might create problems at
boot time by installing the Nvidia drivers from rpmfusion or Nvidia
directly.
I also underwent the same problem.
Follow my previous mail:
If your Nvidia supports Optimus technology then you should install
Bumblebee with or without Nvidia properietary drivers. That should cool
down your laptop. I had the same issue & Bumblebee helped. Basically it
stops the use of GPU when not needed but also one needs to invoke the
particular app to run GPU through Bumblebee. It does not do that
automatically right now.
You can read all this at:

Install it as per:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Bumblebee
Also give the feedback to the list of how you resolved it for other
users' benefit.
