I am finding it hard to deal with as RPMFusion and Fedora are two
seperate thing but when it blocks a update then yes I do think it is a
Fedora issue.
Anyway I have waiting to do
The problem is that there is a kmod but instead of 195.36.31-2 the label
for the new kmod 195.36.31-1
This is confusing as the driver does not end with -1 but a -2
Thanks for agreeing anyway
