I actually tried to downgrade to a fc6 kernel before bugging the list,
and it said I had a bunch of dependencies that required a kernel
version higher than that (mainly kmdl stuff), and I did not want to go
into a cycle of removing those and trying to add those again and
futzing around with all my channels to get everything down to a fc6
kernel.  My first solution was actually just to load one of the older
fc5 kernels on my system, but I realized I blew away the nvidia kmdl
for that, and of course, it is no longer online.

If Axel's solution does not work, I will use yours.
