But as you have installed them, that does no harm. Remove ieee80211 and ieee80211-kmdl first, because new kernel contains that. Then remove all 2.6.20 packages that you don't need. Finally, only these packages left (fuse-kmdl and kernel-header are irrelevant): > ipw3945d-1.7.22-4.at > yum-plugin-kmdl-0.7-9.fc6 > ipw3945-ucode-1.14.2-4.at > ipw3945-1.2.0-18.4.fc6 > ipw3945-kmdl-2.6.22.1-32.fc6-1.2.2-21.fc6 > kernel-2.6.22.1-32.fc6 Before the analysis, remember all kmdl packages depend on a specific version of kernel. In the above list, ipw3945-kmdl depends on kernel-2.6.22.1-32. If you updated the kernel, then ipw3945-kmdl would become unusable. So yum is preventing this from happening. If you want to update your kernel to kernel.i686 2.6.22.2-42.fc6, then you have to be able to find ipw3945-kmdl of that version-release in your configured yum repo. Have you tried the builtin iwl3945 driver? Remove ipw3945-kmdl, Install iwl3945-ucode and you can use the builtin driver, you don't need to install anything else. -- bbbush ^_^
