So basically, yum is doing something sensible, but the livna repository doesn't have updates-testing kernel support.

Consider the following installed rpms (and I hvae akmod-nvidia installed) [rodd@moose ~]$ rpm -q kernel kernel-2.6.25.14-108.fc9.i686 kernel-2.6.26.5-39.fc9.i686 kernel-2.6.26.5-45.fc9.i686 [rodd@moose ~]$ rpm -qa | grep nvidia kmod-nvidia-173.14.12-3.lvn9.i686 xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-libs-173.14.12-1.lvn9.i386 kmod-nvidia-2.6.26.5-39.fc9.i686-173.14.12-2.fc9.i686 kmod-nvidia-2.6.26.5-45.fc9.i686-173.14.12-2.fc9.i686 akmod-nvidia-173.14.12-2.lvn9.i686 kmod-nvidia-2.6.25.14-108.fc9.i686-173.14.12-3.lvn9.i686 xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-173.14.12-1.lvn9.i386 If what people is saying is true, then why is yum trying to install an older version of kmod-nvidia than I already have?
