Thanks!

Do you have multiple nvidia driver versions installed? If they get
updated there may be a mismatch and you need to use
nvidia-graphics-switch.

The recompilation you did was it on the same src.rpm as the one above?

There is no difference in smart/yum wrt channels. If you only install
atrpms-package-config you get the above. If you add
medley-package-config you get a lot more, but always for both
depsolvers (or better said for all three including apt).

You probably have medley-package-config for FC4 installed, but not for
FC5.

Beats me, can you give an example?

You mean upgrading yum to 2.6.1?
