In case anybody cares, this is a blender issue not a Fedora or HP
issue. The version of blender you get from dnf/yum install does not
recognize the GPU. The version (2.82a) you can download directly from
the blender community does. I don't know if it's a version issue or if
the canned package isn't compiled with CUDA support. In any case the
2.82a I downloaded directly untars with a binary the recognizes the
GeForce M250 card.
As an aside, removing the NVIDIA site drivers and reinstalling the
rpmfusion NVIDIA drivers is not hard. If you rerun the .bin file from
NVIDIA with the option --uninstall, it uninstalls cleanly, and then the
rpmfusion NVIDIA driver installs again without a hitch (and the nvidia-
settings works again).
I don't have to reinstall Windows (yayy!)
