You've either missed or forgotten something very, very basic in this 
process.  You click on the URL for the right livna-release-xxx rpm, (and 
I know the link has gone by several times in related posts recently but 
I'm too lazy to look them up for you). The browser will offer to install 
it for you - or you could download the rpm and install it manually. 
After doing this you will have the livna repo added to your yum 
configuration and can use 'yum search nvidia' to find nvidia related 
things in configured repos and 'yum install ....' to install packages 
you find.
