It was right under your nose. :)

For the record, I said your life would be easier in this case if you
had auto-rebuilding dkms-like kernel module packages, not specifically
that you should switch repos. I only said that I knew from personal
experience that RPM Fusion had such a thing, but I thought ATrpms did
too... :)

Rather than do that, just 'yum --nogpgcheck install ...'.

Unless you're doing kernel debugging, you don't need the kernel-
debuginfo-* bits.
