Maybe I should do a package "dump and run" to join fedora
packager community
:)?
No, that is what we (whether via fedora or rpmfusion want to avoid).

Just a curious question: Do you have any idea of how to configure yum
so it can
choose the right kmod for a package? For example, I have kernel 2.6.31 and
2.6.32 installed, I install foo (which requires kmod-foo-kernel_version) in my
2.6.31 , yum normally will automatically take kmod-foo-2.6.32 which certainly
will not work unless I reboot to use the new kernel?
Have you taken a look at akmod
packages; eg nvidia one, if it sees during boot
that your kernel changed, it rebuilds the kmod, and loads that new module. This
avoids delays between release of new kernels until rpmfusion builds normal
kmods for that kernel (usually very quick, however). Its somewhat similar to
how dkms used to work.
