yes. I did not install that kmod, but akmod has the source rpm inside and kmodtools installs correct rpm from that source. so when you reboot using a new kernel, at first time, that rpm is built and installed automatically.

   Dear all,
   using a laptop dell latitude E6500 I have a broadcom wireless card.
   I installed these packages:
   kmod-wl-2.6.31.5-127.fc12.x86_64-5.10.91.9.3-3.fc12.6.x86_64
   akmod-wl-5.10.91.9.3-3.fc12.6.x86_64
   broadcom-wl-5.10.91.9.3-1.fc12.noarch

   then reboot. but I have not my wireless card enabled. and I get:

   # modprobe wl
   FATAL: Module wl not found.

   what happens if you take out the
   kmod-wl-2.6.31.5-127.fc12.x86_64-5.10.91.9.3-3.fc12.6.x86_64 ? i
   would of thought all you need is the akmod

what happens if you take out all of the kmod stuff. Wireless worked for me on a del d620 out of the box with an f12 install.
