I use yumex every morning to keep my desktop up-to-date, and I use 
kmod-nvidia.  When there's a new kernel, there's generally also a new 
kmod to match it, and the two get installed together.  When a new kernel 
gets installed, the oldest one I have gets removed, and yumex reports 
that it's removing the matching kmod as a dependency of the kernel.  I'm 
not sure, but I think that if I just used yum from a CLI, it would 
report things the same way.  What package manager are you using?
