Hi again Axel,

are you sure this was fixed?

I now have only a suspend2 kernel installed, nothing else anymore but if 
I try to install the ivtv kernel driver like this:

   smart install 
http://dl.atrpms.net/all/ivtv-kmdl-2.6.16-1.2080_3.rhfc5.cubbi_suspend2-0.7-111.rhfc5.at.i686.rpm

I get:

   Installed packages (4):
     ivtv-1:0.6.1-109.rhfc5.at at i386
     ivtv-kmdl-2.6.16-1.2080_3.rhfc5.cubbi_suspend2-1:0.7-111.rhfc5.at at i686
     ivtv-kmdl-2.6.16-1.2096_FC5smp-1:0.6.1-109.rhfc5.at at i686
     kernel-smp-2.6.16-1.2096_FC5 at i686

As you can see smart still thinks it should install a non-suspend2 
kernel as well.

Cheers,
