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 for use with the 2.6.17_1.2157_FC5 kernel. However, yum is pulling in the latest kernel, 2.6.17-1.2174_FC5 (and making it the default kernel), even though no matching kmod-nvidia is available... isn't yum supposed to look after dependencies like this? How are kernel and kmod-* supposed to be kept in sync? (I'd rather not use yum excludes, if I don't have too).
My guess is that livna hasn't caught up with the kernel yet. -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ L. Friedman netllama@xxxxxxxxx LlamaLand http://netllama.linux-sxs.org
