Yeah, I was looking at my F16 systems and didn't have that kmod package.  I
know I've seen similarly named packages mentioned in conjunction with the
RPMFusion repo so that's where my confusion came from.  I just looked at
the one system that I've upgraded to F17 and I have the kmod package
installed as well.  Looks like a packaging issue with the NVidia packages
from ATrpms.  I know it is not the best solution, but if you are in a bind
you could probably manually install the packages using rpm with the
--nodeps option.  Seems like kmod is providing the same / similar
functionality as module-init-utils, so hopefully everything would load
properly.
