I hate to complain about anyone doing work for free, but
the end user result is the same whether things break
because incompatibilities are ignored or different ones
are introduced.

Odd, I get:
WARNING: kernel-module-alsa not available for kernel
2.4.26-1.ll.rhfc1.ccrma!
and
The following packages have been kept back
   alsa-driver (1.0.4-0.fdr.1.1 => 1.0.4-1.cvs.rhfc1.ccrma)
   gstreamer-plugins (0.6.3-3 => 0.6.4-0.4.fr)
   gthumb (2.0.2-1 => 2.2.1-1.fr)

Wouldn't that be a problem if I continue?
