Re: keeping kmod-nvidia and kernel upgrades "in sync"

No, it hasn't. So why does yum pull in a new kernel, if kmod-nvidia
depends on the old kernel?

Because you're not upgrading kmod-nvidia.  The kernel has absolutely
no dependencies on kmod-nvidia, its the other way around.

Well, yum has all the package dependency info in its metadata, so why can't it apply it both ways (i.e., kernel -> kmod, and kmod -> kernel)?

But more urgently: what's the best way to ensure that you don't have a non-functioning computer in the morning, because of a driver/kernel mismatch? Do I have to exclude kernel and kmod* from yum updates?
