Oh, I see you are using the nVidia drivers.  From rpmfusion?  Using the akmod-nvidia package as well?

If you are, you need to be aware that currently there is a problem with dnf keeping the rpmdb locked when the kmod-nvidia package for the new kernels are built.  This will also result in them not being built during fedup.

Check the log file /var/cache/akmods/akmods.log for errors. 

A common way to fix the problem is to run this command as root....

/usr/sbin/akmods --force   and then reboot.
