This is good advice.
I have learnt through previous trial-and-error to stop blindly using "yum
update" to upgrade the kernel until I am sure ivtv-kmdl has been updated for
the new kernel. :)

As usual we should give Axel a bit of time to get everything together,
he 's doing a great job building everything so we don't have to.
Paying back with a bit of patience is the least we can do ;)

Thanks all for replies.
I honestly didn't know that I was using a kernel that was so new! I was
just going through Jarod's guide.
Ok, what kernel is safe?
BTW, Axel sent this FYI:
--
ivtv is in the repo, but the generated links on the webpage broke since
Nov. 5th. Thanks for reproting! Either add /all/ in the link or use
smart/apt/yum etc.
Finally alsa-driver is broken on 2.6.14, too. I'll upload 1.0.10rc3
later today.
On the long run I'll try to focus with v4l/ivtv/mythtv bits on RHEL4,
and try to convince Jarod to rebase his guide (although 99% is the
same as FC4). FC4 is upgrading the kernel far too often, including
major upgrades and broken ones, too. And I'd like a more stable
platform for productive systems, including PVRs.

When I do:
yum list kernel*
There are no other kernel's available but the ones I have installed
(2.6.14-1.1637_FC4 and the old 2.6.11-1.1369_FC4)
How can I go back a version with yum? (say 1532, seems appropriate?)
oh... I did try to manually install the 1532 kernel with rpm, but rpm
complained that I had a newer kernel and refused to install.
I don't know about kernels and versions AFA: can you install a kernel
with rpm and then just update grub.conf to pick which one to boot
with? Will all kernels still be available IF you install them with
'rpm" rather than 'yum' or 'apt-get'?
Put another way, does yum and apt-get have some magic of installing
multiple kernels (in their unique dirs) that rpm does not?
Better would be if I could yum install kernel at some older level, but
none seem to be available on the fedora sites. (per my last msg)
thanks for the help,
brad
before you ask, yes, I used rpm -i not -U to install the older kernel
rpm
