In what sense does akmod "not work"?  Do you get messages at boot, in
dmesg, or in /var/log/messages?

What happens if you run akmods --force from the command line (as root)?
(If you aren't running the kernel you want to build for, add --kernels
<kernel-version>.)

FWIW, aknod worked smooth as silk here (Quadro NVS 140M
2.6.29.6-217.2.8.fc11.x86_64) and even with legacy drivers (GeForce FX
5400 2.6.29.6-217.2.8.fc11.i686.PAE).
