When i upgrade a kernel on my system, i have to install manually (nothing available as yum update) the kernel module ? At least it is what i need to do with spca5xx-kmdl-2.6.17-1.2157_FC5.i686. Why this is not do by yum update ?
Because such packages have a two-dimensional evr (one for the kernel and one for the module itself) and neither rpm, nor any higher depsolver supports this (other than apt & lua).
But it's not a real problem, on ATrpms' archives you'll find three-line recipes that effectively do what you want it to do.
I don't have this problem with kernel module from livna but it does not matter. If there is a recipe to do this, can you please give me a more precise pointer and maybe this recipe need to be somewhere on your website. Eric
