That kernel has a security issue and was deprectaed some time ago.

That's OK.

Some more details wouldn't hurt. ;=)

Just paste the output of whatever command you tried. I'd use

smart update
smart upgrade

rpm -qa \*-kmdl-\* | sed -e's,-kmdl.*,-kmdl-2.6.15-1.1831_FC4,' | sort -u | xargs echo smart install

The latter will only output a command that you could use to upgrade
all kmdls. It will not perform the actual action, just copy and paste.
