not to?

Yes, this kernel is from updates-testing. I don't see how that changes
anything. Before anyone tells me that livna can't be expect to provide
modules for kernels in testing, please re read my post and note that I
tried to install kmod-nvidia from livna for 2798, not the new kernel
(2835). 2798 was the stock box kernel for the fc6 upgrade.

testing != stable

"Testing" means "it might steal your boyfriend, take your lunch money,
start global thermonuclear war, or make daemons fly out of your nose."
If you run unstable software and it breaks, you get to keep both pieces.
