I was able to install nvidia drivers successfully in Silverblue 30.
I was able to complete install with fedora’s “fedora-workstation-repositories” by enabling “rpmfusion-nonfree-nvidia-driver.repo”. Then, " rpm-ostree install kmod-nvidia xorg-x11-drv-nvidia". And finally, use the same kargs from Alex’s nvidia blog post. Worked well. I have not noticed any performance issues.
The issue:
After I did a general system upgrade that included an update to the kernal, the akmod no longer worked! I am not sure why the akmod post-scripts didnt execute after kernal update. I havnt found a “real” solution to this problem: my uneducated workaround was to uninstall/install the two nvidia packages, which worked for me.

@alexl - any idea?
Hello folks!
The rpmfusion nvidia driver not found the kernel module in f33 neither f34
I'm currently on f34 right now
Fábio
Please provide:
rpm-ostree status
Also NVIDIA drivers come from the rpm-fusion repository which is not maintained nor supported by Fedora so you might want to open an issue in their bugtracker.
I imagine its a new issue... the logs of rpm-ostree as requested:

Update my previous comment to clarify the things we need to help you.
Hello...
How to the correct way to install nvidia driver in the Silverblue instead of nouveau?
This might help: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fedora-silverblue/troubleshooting/#_using_nvidia_drivers
It is outdated and doesn't work... is missing nvidia kernel module ... AND uses rpmfusion
I am currently on F34 and don’t have issues with nvidia. These are the steps i use, so I’m sure they are the same ones you already used:
$ sudo rpm-ostree install https://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-34.noarch.rpm https://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/fedora/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-34.noarch.rpm
$ systemctl reboot
$ rpm-ostree install kmod-nvidia xorg-x11-drv-nvidia
$ sudo rpm-ostree kargs --append=rd.driver.blacklist=nouveau --append=modprobe.blacklist=nouveau --append=nvidia-drm.modeset=1
Hello, folks
Its necessary to disable the secure boot to works that drivers, btw the Fedora installed with secureboot actived. But have trouble against akmods... not generate modules to work with vulkaninfo and vdpauinfo.
I opened that bugzilla, was closed and reopened. https://bugzilla.rpmfusion.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5946
RPMFusion working on
... not generate modules to work with vulkaninfo and vdpauinfo.

not generate modules to work with vulkaninfo and vdpauinfo.
To works must be in x11 session, not in wayland!
