It seems to me that you have the wrong module.
Try this:
rpm -q --qf "%{name}-%{version} : %{arch}\n" kernel
kernel-2.6.24.3 : i686 kernel-2.6.24.3 : i686
rpm -q --qf "%{name}-%{version} : %{arch}\n" nvidia-graphics169.12-kmdl-2.6.24.3-34.fc8
nvidia-graphics169.12-kmdl-2.6.24.3-34.fc8-169.12 : i586
Looks good to me.
