Watch when doing so whether yum picks up again the wrong module. In any case you should report it to bugzilla.redhat.com under yum that yum picked the wrong arch (unless you picked them manually and picked i586 instead of i686). It happens sometimes for certain CPUs that yum considers them to be i586. This will not only affect kmdls but other packages that offer i686 versions as well. -- Axel.Thimm at ATrpms.net
