I actually had tried this in the way past with no luck. However,
it's an excellent suggestion to try on this new kernel:
# echo $KVER
2.6.22.5-49.fc6
# yum -y install nvidia-graphics9746-kmdl-$KVER
Yum reports that no updates are needed. So I try Jarod's variation
on the command:
# yum -y install nvidia-graphics9746-kmdl-$KVER nvidia-graphics9746
The kernel 2.6.22.1 gets downloaded, tries to install, but fails. (I
have no idea where this came from...)
I have never tried to update other modules such as alsa, ivtv, or
lirc. Should I?
Any more suggestions?
