smart install ivtv-kmdl-2.6.15-1.1831_FC4
nvidia-graphics8178-kmdl-2.6.15-1.1831_FC4
[root at tibeaux ~]#

So, are you saying I should run:

smart install ivtv-kmdl-2.6.15-1.1831_FC4
nvidia-graphics8178-kmdl-2.6.15-1.1831_FC4
?

That's not a new kernel version?  What was deprecated b/c of security
issues?  Should I just shut-up and run the command(s)?
