The "error" persisted even after a "clean all". >rpmfusion just created their f15 branch and built the kmods for the >releases kernel, then a bit later they built an update for the updated >kernel you were running.

So, you are saying that a condition could exist when a package would get installed even if the requirement for a specific kernel is not met? I am confident the right stuff will get installed when the packages get up dated. But I'm concerned that any circumstance could exist that would allow the wrong package to be installed. -- Sent from my Android phone with K-9 Mail.
