This should not happen -- the livna package should disable the nvidia driver and switch to nv when the kernel-module for the new kernel is missing. If not file a bug.
This :-( :-( "feature" made me dump the livna way a long time ago.
Not only do you have to get the kernel module installed, you also have to set up X again to use the nvidia driver.
Now if only some cleaver rpm dependencies could be set up so that the kernel isn't updated until a new livna nvidia rpm is available - that would be useful!

I may be daft, but for my ATI card, whenever I update my kernel from updates released it defautls to use the radeon driver. I just update the kernel-module from livna manually.
I don't see why this would not work for nVidia.
