Well, I just download the tar file, extracted and ran.
And, it detected my GPU just fine.
GeForce GTX 660 (Display)
So, it would seem the disable CUDA was intentional on Fedora
Project's part.
Well, I just rendered a scene or two and turning the GPU on didn't
really speed up rendering subjectively (though I haven't done a real
timing yet). It may be broken. I'd been reading about these huge
speedups with the NVIDIA GPU, and I was excited to see if it was true
when I got my new laptop. It was disappointing. But I'll switch over
to the Blender groups for followup for that.
