Hi,

I was running F8 with kernel-2.6.23.1-49.fc8 together with kmod-nvidia-100.14.19-18.lvn8 and
kmod-nvidia-2.6.23.1-49.fc8-100.14.19-18.lvn8

.

When trying "yum update kernel" (for updating kernel to version 2.6.23.8-63.fc8), yum rejected this
because the installed kmod-nvidia needs kernel-2.6.23.1-49.fc8. But inspecting the livna repos
showed me that kmod-nvidia-100.14.19-19.lvn8 and kmod-nvidia-2.6.23.8-63.fc8-100.14.19-19.lvn8

are absolutely available.

I had to uninstall all kmod-nvidia, then update the kernel and then install kmod-nvidia again.
Now my system runs with kmod-nvidia-100.14.19-19.lvn8,
kmod-nvidia-2.6.23.8-63.fc8-100.14.19-19.lvn8 and kernel-2.6.23.8-63.fc8


Any issues?

Another workaround:

yumdownloader kernel
rpm -ivh kernel*.rpm
yum update

I had this issue also and found by trial and error that doing
yum update kmod-nvidia
which pulls in the new kernel and then followed by a regular
yum update
did work.
