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