Have you tried installing yum-fedorakmod ?

yum-fedorakmod.noarch                    1.0.3-1.fc6            extras
Matched from:
yum-fedorakmod
Yum plugin to handle fedora kernel modules.
Plugin for Yum to handle installation of kmod-foo type of kernel modules, when 
new kernel versions
are installed.
kmod-foo kernel modules is described by the Fedora Extras packaging standards.
http://linux.duke.edu/yum/download/yum-utils/


Its quite nice, since it 'educates' yum to be a bit more sane with kmods - For 
instance, if a new kernel comes out you won't offer it as an upgrade option 
until all kmod's you have installed are also available for the new kernel. If 
you don't mind not getting new kernels straight away (usually only a few 
days) its pretty useful.

p.s. There are quite a few other useful yum plugins out there - Try 
running 'yum search yum'
