Hi.
I got an interesting Yum problem today. It complains that kernel
2.6.22.4-65.fc7 is needed by kmod-(nvidia|ntfs) for that kernel, even
though that kernel isn't going to be touched by the update:
# yum update
Loading "fedorakmod" plugin
Loading "fastestmirror" plugin
Loading "skip-broken" plugin

Any ideas, or should i file a bug right away?

I don't think it is a yum problem. I tried to get the update to
kmod-nvidia but it failed to load due to needed Dependancy. I am
thinking it is just a poor Update package. Your using 64 bit F7 and the
update I think is to 32 bit.
