YUM seems to be broken 

[root at mythtv imon]# yum install kernel-devel
http://dl.atrpms.net/fc5-i386/redhat/updates-legacy/repodata/repomd.xml:

And there is no driver section in lcdproc.conf were you thinking about
LCDd.conf that lists Driver=imon

I did download the kernel-devel rpm but don't know which option I should
select when installing it.
