Hi all,

I've just started using the livna nvidia driver,kmod-nvidia-1.0.8762-2.2.6.17_1.2157_FC5 . This is obviously meant foruse with the 2.6.17_1.2157_FC5 kernel. However, yum is pulling in thelatest kernel, 2.6.17-1.2174_FC5 (and making it the default kernel),even though no matching kmod-nvidia is available... isn't yum supposedto look after dependencies like this?

How are kernel and kmod-* supposed to be kept in sync? (I'd rather notuse yum excludes, if I don't have too).
