That means you've got the right kmdl installed. Not sure if that's good or 
bad. :)

Yes, those are part of the actual package name, as kernel modules are tied to 
particular kernel versions. The version number comes later. 

In the above example, the package is ivtv-kmdl-2.4.20-24_31.rh9.at and the 
version is 0.12-cvs20031125a_M179_cs_16.rh9.at. Ugly, but necessary, since 
every kernel needs its own kernel module.
