I am really new at creating rpm files I have been really lucky in the
fact
that if the rpm didn't work I would do a make install from source.
My ]$ uname -r -m is. 2.6.17-1.2139_FC5.stk16smp i686
what's with the stk16 ? At any rate, you need the packages it told you need above. Install them with yum.
stk16 is the 16k Kernel Stack from http://www.linuxant.com/driverloader/wlan/full/downloads-fc5-kernel-i686.php
I downloaded all that yum would download and I am still getting this:

when I do yum install kernel-smp-devel I get nothing to do.
Perhaps its already installed with the 16k stack kernel? You can always try using --nodeps. Or just install the official driver package from NVIDIA's website.
