This needs to be smart enough to detect if the system is Fedora and if it is a version compatible with "updates" (17 or upper ?). It should be noticed that Ubuntu has a similar kind of preference, but it uses the modules on a separate place. >> >> I also have a suggestion to make: >> >> - How http://linux/linuxtv.org/downloads/drivers/linux-media-LATEST.tar.bz2 >> is generated, probably should be documented.

I'll double check if this is happening fine.
