Hi All,


(Is there a separate rpmfusion list I should ask this on?)


On Sunday, 16th December, yum update brought in a new kernel package
kernel-3.6.10-2.fc17.x86_64

root@snoopy ~ # rpm -qa kernel
kernel-3.6.9-2.fc17.x86_64
kernel-3.6.8-2.fc17.x86_64
kernel-3.6.10-2.fc17.x86_64


To date (20th December) I can't reboot into it because there is no corresponding update for the nVidia driver:


root@snoopy ~ # yum update xorg-x11-drv-nvidia xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-libs.i686 
xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-libs kmod-nvidia
Loaded plugins: langpacks, presto, refresh-packagekit
No Packages marked for Update


A yum search confirms this (see below).
I appreciate that it's a volunteer project and there are no guarantees, and that the proprietary nvidia module is frowned upon, but generally speaking I see kmod updates within a day of the corresponding kernel update so I wonder whether I have broken something or am otherwise doing something wrong? If it's just a matter of having more patience that's fine too! Advice would be appreciated.
