I'm trying :) But I never enabled rpmfusion-nonfree-updates-testing, and I
installed the new update for kernel 2.6.29.6-217.2.8.fc11.x86_64.

First time I rebooted, boot stopped, just where it used to with -217.2.7:
"r8169: eth0: link up" . I checked if there was any akmod left to mess
things up and all I found was /var/cache/akmods. I supposed this was
unrelated, but I deleted it just the same. Now, the boot process stops at
"atd".
