Note that nothing below talks about 3.15. You've apparently installed it outside of rpm/yum, which is perfectly OK - rpm and yum will silently ignore kernel versions you've installed yourself. (Right now I have 3 Fedora kernels and 4 or 5 different linux-next kernels all in /boot, works fine). > Is there a way to get yum to recognize the latest kernel I built?

(And since the rpmfusion package wants *exactly* 3.13.10-200, telling yum you have a 3.15 kernel won't make it happier). You have several choices: 1) Find a 3.13.10-200 kernel from Fedora and install it. (This could be difficult, as yum probably should have already found it for you). 2) remove the package from rpmfusion if you're not actually using it. 3) If you have an 'excludes = kernel*' in your yum.conf file to keep yum from automatically updating your kernel, try 'yum --disableexcludes=all' to see if that fixes the problem. 4) Ignore the issue until rpmfusion and Fedora agree again on what the latest kernel is...
